The action
The building at 70 Distillery Lane 'is pretty new and the finishings are very good, so it has a great reputation,' the agent says.Re/Max Hallmark
This one-bedroom suite at the Clear Spirit building clocked in more than 30 showings, which was an early indicator of its popularity despite other vacancies in the high-rise late this October. On the scheduled presentation offer date, six parties battled over the price that would make them the next owner.
“We had one open house, but it was mostly people coming back for a second look,” agent Pierre Carapetian said.
“It’s very difficult to find a smaller unit with a completely unobstructed view of the skyline – that’s what was really special about it.”

“The building is pretty new and the finishings are very good, so it has a great reputation,” Mr. Carapetian said.
“The unit showed really well because the [owner] had taken a lot of care of it and a lot of things were upgraded.”
