A Refined City Residence Above Historic Old Toronto

Some homes simply exist within the city. Others allow you to experience it.

Perched high above one of Toronto’s most historic neighbourhoods, this rare, 1754 sq. ft. corner residence at The Spire captures the quiet elegance of downtown living with an atmosphere that feels elevated, sophisticated, and deeply connected to the architectural beauty of the city.

From the moment you step inside, the skyline unfolds in every direction.

With unobstructed South, East, and West exposures, the suite overlooks the magnificent spires of St. James Cathedral, the historic character of St. Lawrence Hall, and the vibrant cityscape beyond. In the distance, the skyline opens toward Lake Ontario, creating a dynamic urban panorama that connects the city to the waterfront horizon.

The view is expansive yet peaceful — a daily reminder that even in the heart of the city, there is space to breathe.

A Balcony That Becomes an Outdoor Sanctuary

Extending from the living space is a beautifully designed L-shaped balcony, thoughtfully organised as a series of intimate outdoor “rooms.”

Here, the owner has created a mature perennial garden, complete with an automatic irrigation system, lighting, and a gas connection for outdoor cooking. The sheltered microclimate just outside the kitchen allows herbs, tomatoes, and seasonal plantings to flourish throughout the warmer months.

It is rare to find this level of outdoor living in a downtown condominium — a place where gardening, dining, and quiet moments outdoors become part of everyday life.

Interiors Designed for Elegant Living

Inside, the suite welcomes you with a gracious foyer featuring custom built-ins, offering both storage and a refined first impression. The entry space naturally invites conversation, art, or music — setting the tone for the home beyond.

The layout unfolds into a beautifully balanced living and dining area framed by uninterrupted city views. At its centre, a striking black granite gas fireplace anchors the living room, creating a sense of warmth and architectural focus.

An Entertainer’s Paradise

The chef’s kitchen is designed with both functionality and craftsmanship in mind. A generous granite island invites gathering, while a fold-out pantry provides smart storage for everyday living.

Premium appliances elevate the culinary experience, including a Bertazzoni gas range and oven, Miele hood, Sub-Zero refrigerator with dual freezer drawers, Panasonic convection microwave, electric convection oven, and a built-in Miele coffee machine.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room comfortably accommodates larger gatherings and features a temperature-controlled multi-bottle wine fridge — perfect for those who enjoy curating a thoughtful wine collection.

This is a home designed not only for living, but for hosting.

Privacy and Comfort in the Bedroom Wing

The suite’s split-bedroom layout ensures privacy between the primary suite and the additional bedrooms — an ideal arrangement for guests, family members, or a dedicated home office.

The primary bedroom offers a calm retreat with a spacious walk-in closet, additional custom built-ins, and a luxurious five-piece spa-inspired ensuite designed for relaxation and restoration.

Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility and comfort, making the home adaptable to many lifestyles.

Practical Luxury in the Details

Urban living is most enjoyable when convenience is seamlessly integrated.

This residence includes one parking space and two oversized lockers located on the same level, providing rare and highly practical storage within the building.

• A well-equipped fitness centre

• Steam baths

• Elegant party room for entertaining

• Boardroom for meetings or work sessions

• Two guest suites for visiting friends and family
