One of the most unique penthouses on the market right now is at 614-68 Broadview Ave. The loft was originally constructed for the United Drug Company. In fact, the ground floor was used as a pharmacy and soda fountain from 1920 to 1943. The building was eventually converted into a condo and given two extra storeys in 2006.
This two-level listing embraces true loft-style living with exposed ductwork, warehouse-style windows and exposed brick. It comes with two bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a den. The unit lives in the Riverside neighbourhood and is listed for $2.249 million.
Soaring 21-foot ceilings and full height windows make the loft feel massive. The airy floorplan is open concept and has south exposure.
There’s more than enough space for a living room next to the staircase.
The future owners can gaze out the window while eating in the dining area, which is conveniently next to the renovated kitchen.
Stainless steel appliances and white cabinetry give the kitchen a chic feel. There’s also an island that can provide casual seating for up to four people.
This bedroom can be accessed from the living room. It comes with an ensuite bathroom.
Exposed brick pops in the primary bedroom. It’s located on the second level and is open to the main living space.
A spacious walk-in closet has plenty of organizers to keep things tidy.
The ensuite bathroom is quite impressive. It’s designed with a double floating vanity, subway tiles, and huge walk-in shower.
This cosy den makes for an ideal office space. It could also work as a nursery or den.
Here’s a look at the generously sized outdoor balcony.
