Welcome to The Dorchester, a rare and captivating opportunity to own a slice of Toronto's architectural history. Tucked into the prestigious Avenue Road & St. Clair neighbourhood, this 1940 Art Deco beauty stands apart from every cookie-cutter condo in the city. Surrounded by stately multi-million dollar homes and leafy streets, this is elegant city living with timeless character at a fraction of the price. If you want a state of the art gym, bowling alley, basketball court, and maintenance fees to match -- you're at the wrong place. But if you crave some authentic vintage vibes in a spacious corner suite, this is the one. Think rich hardwood floors, French and sliding doors, wainscotting, arched doorways, and crown moulding. The oversized bedroom features a double closet and a full ensuite bath, while the open-concept living/dining area includes a versatile den or office nook (with room, perhaps, for a Murphy bed?), creative studio, or cozy reading space.The kitchen is compact but bright and cheerful, with a large window, ceramic tile floors, subway tile backsplash, and just the right dash of retro style. The elegant black-framed casement windows bathe the entire suite in natural light. Pot lights add a modern touch, and there's plenty of in-suite storage plus a separate storage locker downstairs. All this and just a 12-minute stroll to the St. Clair subway, a short walk to Yonge Streets cafes, shops, and restaurants, and surrounded by beautiful parks, this home is equally suited for entertaining or for curling up with a good book and a fine whisky. Space. Character. Location. Charm.You wont find another condo quite like this in the city. (id:52316)
