Toronto’s East Bayfront area is in the midst of transformation with new infrastructure projects, educational institutions and soaring condo towers currently under construction. One of the first residential developments on the block was Monde Condos by Great Gulf.
The project’s architect, Moshe Safdie, is internationally renowned for his work on the Mamilla Alrov Center in Jerusalem, the Marina Bay Sands resort in Singapore and Habitat 67 in Montreal. The Israeli-born and Canadian-raised architect is known for designing landmark buildings that respect and enhance the urban fabric.
At Monde, he has created a modern high-rise tower that makes the most of its waterfront location, offering scenic views of Lake Ontario and the surrounding greenspaces. The 44-storey tower was completed in 2019 but there are still two never-lived-in penthouse units available.
Priced at $1,883,990, suite 4404 offers 1,325 square feet of living space and comes complete with two balconies, a south-facing terrace, and panoramic lake and city views. The suite opens onto an L-shaped kitchen area with custom cabinets, an island with a breakfast bar, integrated appliances and Caesarstone countertops.
The kitchen and adjacent dining room is naturally lit by wall-to-wall windows and faces a 28-foot outdoor terrace. This sprawling outdoor area provides the perfect canvas to create your own outdoor oasis with sun-drenched, south-facing views, built-in planters and a gas barbecue connection.
A wall of windows flows from the kitchen and dining area to the living room, which has its own walkout to a private balcony. Meanwhile, a handy walk-in storage area is tucked behind the kitchen providing additional closet and pantry space.
The home’s two bedrooms, two bathrooms and laundry room are situated on the north end of the suite and are separated from the main living area for privacy. Past the secondary bedroom and main bathroom is the suite’s principal bedroom. In addition to a luxurious ensuite with dual vanities and a generously-sized walk-in closet, this bedroom has its own private balcony with north, east and south-facing views.
Amenities at Monde include an outdoor infinity edge pool with private cabanas, a fireside lounge, indoor and outdoor entertainment spaces, and a café promenade fronting Sherbourne Common Park.
