Quintessential Queens Quay West
Sometimes things really are too good to be true. And then there are times when a rare opportunity avails itself. There is value in having a home that looks like it has been styled right out of the glossy pages of a shelter magazine- not just aesthetically, but as the backdrop for your lifestyle.
Style itself is an investment. Perhaps you lack the time, talent or inclination to undertake the complexity of decorating a residence; maybe you’ve allocated the bulk of your funds for your down payment and closing costs, leaving little budget for decor. Fear not; here is the real estate opportunity!
This turn-key one bedroom and den condominium bursting with style and pizazz is owned by a designer, who has profited from her panache by renting this suite out as an executive furnished rental. Although this designer and her partner are happy take their contents with them, this dazzling dwell is brimming with so many special pieces ideal for the space, it seems a pity not to offer the property fully furnished. This is a unique opportunity for the buyer who wants the look for cost that is well-below retail. Could this be you?
Welcome to Suite 1304, 250 Queens Quay West.

And for those who love partaking in Harbourfront's superb cultural and leisure amenities, the Harbourfront Centre hosts an extensive program of arts and cultural events throughout each summer, including craft and artisan fairs, theatre and dance performances and musical concerts. A series of free concerts is staged at Harbourfront's outdoor concert stage every weekend throughout the summer and in winter there is the free open-air ice rink. How amazing is that?

It faces the inner harbour with Toronto islands in the distance. Bright yellow umbrellas populate the white sand providing shade for those relaxing in Muskoka chairs.
