A balcony above the treetops, with city views

Sliding glass doors open the bright main room to a private balcony and a wide view of the downtown skyline.

Sliding glass doors open from the main room to a balcony set above the treetops, with a view across the neighbourhood to the downtown towers. Inside, the main room is open and bright, with pale walls and speckled terrazzo-style floors throughout. The kitchen has light wood cabinets, a tile backsplash and a full set of appliances, and a roomy closet keeps storage simple. A shared laundry room is in the building.

Corktown Park is nearby for fresh air, and Tim Hortons is close for the morning coffee run. The downtown location suits first-time buyers and anyone wanting a low-fuss base.
