Days on the market: Nine
Listing agent: Cathy Methven, Sutton Group – Old Mill Realty Inc.
The Action:During the nine days this two-bedroom-plus-den corner suite was open for showings in advance of an offer date in November, 27 prospective buyers toured it and three stepped forward with offers.
"There is not [a lot of] inventory to satisfy the demand for a special luxury suite, especially so close to miles of trails, fine shopping, dining and TTC at your doorstep," agent Cathy Methven said.
"So it's not unusual for very special, high-end units to attract multiple [bids]."
What They Got: In a mid-rise building next to Old Mill station, this 15-year-old suite features expansive windows, nine-foot ceilings and numerous upgrades, such as marble and hardwood floors and a remodelled kitchen.
Outdoor spaces are located off the den and the main living and dining area. The latter also benefits from a gas fireplace. The unit comes with two bathrooms, a locker and tandem, two-car parking. Monthly fees of $1,190 cover utilities, cable and care for a rooftop patio and pool.
The Agent's Take: "Known as the Terraces of Old Mill, this is a boutique address with only 119 suites and a select few, such as this one, boasting a terrace. Unusually, this suite also offered a balcony," Ms. Methven said.
"So, the 1,626-square-foot layout expanded to over 2,200 square feet once the lovely outside living space – with barbecue and water hook ups – is added."
