Condo of the week: 80 Cumberland Street

A two-storey sub penthouse in the swanky Yorkville neighbourhood, 80 Cumberland Street is an upscale two bedroom, priced at $1.1 million. Located in one of the city's most expensive areas, the suite in the "Maxus Condos" is approx. 1,300 square feet and features three bathrooms, two balconies, 17-foot ceilings and a glossy velvet master bedroom fitting for Hefner and his bunnies.

It's a unique space and layout, from the eye-popping custom milled front door to the glass staircase and custom wine rack. Also giving credit to the small designer touches like the hanging Blomus fireplace in the bedroom, the mounted flatscreen in the ensuite and uplighting instead of excessive pot lights throughout.

The second level features two bedrooms to be reckoned with. The first room has a full-length glass wall along with a mirrored one and the flashy master bedroom might be too sexy to sleep. A purple headboard, built-in lighting, and tinted sliding doors, the room could double as a hotel suite---like your own private retreat in the city.

The Cumberland suite is a bit overdone but isn't that what we love about Yorkville?

GOOD FOR

Sommeliers. Take advantage of the numerous wine bars in the neighbourhood or better yet, stay home and enjoy the wine rack just off the kitchen. It's a show piece, complimenting the glass blown chandelier above the dining room table and the glowing indoor tree. The suite which was renovated a few years back also added extras like built-in shelving and upgrades to the washrooms.

MOVE ON IF

You need serious VIP treatment. 80 Cumberland is not the fanciest address on the block and amenities are tame in comparison to other nearby towers that feature over-the-top rooftop pools, car washes, outdoor screening rooms, and even spas for the dog. You'll have to settle for the typical fitness studio, party room and on the positive side, a slightly lower monthly fee.
