The den features a hardwood floor, pot lights, floor-to-ceiling windows, an office nook, and a double-sided, linear propane fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling marble surround.

The new, oversized, luxury, penthouse suite, located in a building steps away from the shores of Lake Ontario and Toronto’s Harbourfront, is designed for a large family. Each of the four bedrooms boasts its own ensuite, and the unit features a family room, an open-concept den, a butler’s pantry, and two balconies.

“We knew this was the best location on the waterfront and we wanted to build a condominium complex that was iconic in its architecture and offered five-star amenities, which include an indoor thermal relaxation pool with a spacious dry sauna, an indoor resistance pool, as well as an outdoor pool. We wanted to emphasize the connection to the lake — residents could be in the water, by the water,” says owner and developer Sam Crignano, president of Cityzen Development Group.

Other building amenities include a two-storey lobby, a lounge, two cabanas and fireplaces in the outdoor pool area, state-of-the-art fitness facilities, a concierge, and guest suites.

The building is a short walk to many restaurants, Jack Layton Ferry Terminal, and Harbourfront Centre. It is close to Union Station and has easy access to the Gardiner Expressway.

Both balconies have unobstructed views of Lake Ontario.

The suite has never been lived in. It is located at the end of the SkyBridge, which joins the two buildings, and was designed with ample room for living and entertaining. The butler’s pantry can be used to keep meal prep and catering out of sight. If an in-law or caregiver is living with the owners, the butler’s pantry can be used in association with the abutting bedroom to form a nanny or in-law suite.

Says listing agent Sharon Florian: “A contemporary suite this size is very rare, especially with panoramic views of the lake.

“The suite is enclosed by floor-to-ceiling glass on all sides, making the views of the lake, the natural light, and the overall expansiveness, very impressive, as well as relaxing.”

The front door of the suite opens to the foyer which has a herringbone-patterned hardwood floor, pot lights, and a double closet.

Highlights of the kitchen include a centre island-breakfast bar with a quartz counter and "waterfall" feature, a quartz slab backsplash, a hardwood floor, and built-in stainless steel appliances, some with panelling that matches the cabinets.

A long hall leads to the family room, which contains a hardwood floor, pot lights, and floor-to-ceiling windows.

The adjoining den features a hardwood floor, pot lights, floor-to-ceiling windows, an office nook, and a double-sided, linear propane fireplace flush with a floor-to-ceiling marble surround.

The living room shares the other side of the fireplace and is equipped with a sliding-glass door walkout to a balcony, a hardwood floor, pot lights, and floor-to-ceiling windows.

Connected to the living room is the very spacious dining room, which has a hardwood floor, two walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, and pot lights.

Overlooking the dining room, the kitchen showcases a centre island-breakfast bar with a quartz counter and “waterfall” feature, built-in stainless steel appliances — some have panelling that matches the cabinets — a quartz slab backsplash, and a hardwood floor.

The building overlooks Lake Ontario and connects to its sister building through a bridge, made largely of glass, at the top of the buildings.

The main bedroom is close to the foyer and is appointed with double entry doors, a hardwood floor, a sitting area, floor-to-ceiling windows, a sliding-glass door walkout to a private balcony, a double closet, a walk-in closet, and a five-piece ensuite.

Two secondary bedrooms each have a hardwood floor, a walk-in closet, and a three-piece ensuite.

Highlights of the fourth bedroom are two double closets, a hardwood floor, a three-piece ensuite, and easy access to the butler’s pantry.

A laundry room, a two-piece bathroom, and a storage room complete this suite.
