612 505 Richmond Street W, Toronto

The Waterworks building, by now, hardly needs any introduction... impeccably built, award-winning, well run and vibrant. This particular suite began as a two-bedroom layout and has been thoughtfully converted into a one-bedroom, resulting in an extraordinary sense of space and flow. The simple edit elevates the home into something unique: a residence with sweeping skyline and charming city views, paired with a generous corner balcony that extends the living outdoors. The corner balcony shown in the photos features tiled flooring, glass railings and room for seating and planters, creating a true extension of the living space with open city vistas. With meticulously upgraded lighting, kitchen cabinetry and custom wardrobes, double layered window treatments all allow to personalize the level of lighting and privacy to one's mood. The kitchen has a long island/peninsula with a clean white countertop, matte-black faucet and stainless appliances, open sightlines to the living/dining area and plenty of cabinetry for storage — ideal for entertaining. The Signature 1.5 bathroom is smartly laid out to provide privacy when entertaining or when there is more than one occupant in the household. The main bath is finished in stone-look tile with a frameless glass tub/shower enclosure, contemporary floating vanity and matte-black fixtures for a spa-like feel. The option to convert back to a two bedroom is available and can be easily done. Tasteful and beautiful local custom wood furniture combined with pieces from Danish design houses such as &Tradition and Audo (formerly Menu) can be all available for purchase. Vibrant Food Hall and patios, event spaces, flower shop, Susur Lee's restaurant, and now open YMCA with a pool, are right at the door. The building’s food-hall style public spaces are shown with high-end finishes — marble-topped service counters, dramatic lighting and contemporary seating — reflecting the building’s hospitality-oriented amenities. Surrounded by the Health and Wellness corridor and Ace hotel and many many more amenities, dining, shopping, and cultural experiences just beyond. Situated in one of downtown Toronto's most walkable neighbourhoods, this home offers an unmatched balance of privacy, community and connection to the city's best. The building, alone, has its own well equipped private gym, a stylish lounge/party room for private events, fantastic management and lively social events for residents. Also a spectacular rooftop with barbecues that hosts a summer cinema series. (id:1945)
