Like Tim’s and maple syrup, being near water and nature is a constant in many Canadians’ lives. Many of us residing in Toronto, a metropolis of 6.4 million people, are prepared to drive hours up north and navigate weekend road rage simply to crack a beer on the dock, make S’mores, and hear the call of the loon before heading back to the city.

Research shows that those who escape to “blue spaces” see real benefits for their physical and mental health. Time by the water lowers stress and anxiety, boosts well-being and happiness, slows heart and breathing rates, and encourages a healthier lifestyle overall. But for Torontonians who cherish both their vibrant city walks and their peaceful cottage dock days, the constant ‘either/or’ trade-off, and the exhausting travel in between, can drain even the most devoted weekend warriors.

Fortunately, there’s a solution where one can enjoy the benefits of being near water and still jump on the streetcar to get downtown for work.

 

Welcome to Vita on the Lake, in Humber Bay Shores.

A Waterfront Lifestyle, Redefined

Nestled along the gentle curve of Lake Ontario, Toronto’s west-end waterfront enclave, Humber Bay Shores, is where peaceful lakeside living meets big city sophistication. It’s the lovechild of nature and mindful urban design, with endless walking trails, espresso bars to match, and even more green space on the way thanks to the Humber Bay Park Master Plan. Toronto’s western waterfront is one of the fastest-evolving lakefront communities in Canada – and it shows!

Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee while taking in panoramic water views or letting the streetcar whisk you into the downtown core, life here feels elevated, intentional… and just breezy! With sweeping views of Lake Ontario and the Toronto skyline, Humber Bay Shores sets a high standard of living. From energizing sunrise to peaceful, golden sunset, you’ll feel like you’re on vacation every single day.

 

 

While downtown Toronto pulses minutes away, you’ll find no shortage of things to do right in your own backyard. From May through October, spend Saturday mornings browsing fresh local produce at the beloved HBSCA Farmers’ Market at Humber Bay Shores Park West. The Martin Goodman Trail, one of the most beautiful pedestrian and cycling paths in the city, wraps around the shoreline just outside your door. Whether you’re rollerblading to Sunnyside Pavilion, paddleboarding off Humber Bay Park East, or jogging toward the iconic white arches of the Humber Bay Bridge, this is a community built for outdoor enthusiasts and serenity seekers alike.

Craving caffeine or international flavours? Humber Bay Shores is a delightfully walkable pocket of curated coffee shops, lakeside restaurants and patios. Start your day with a rich espresso at Paul’s Coffee or a perfect pastry from BB Café. Or perhaps something fresh? Krazy Roll serves creative sushi, while Ono Poke Bar offers vibrant build-your-own bowls. For a casual bite, grab a gourmet slice at Gravity Pizza or meet friends for classic pub fare and lake views at Firkin on the Bay.

When the sun sets, stroll to La Vecchia for an elegant Italian dinner or unwind on Eden Trattoria’s patio, a neighbourhood gem for sunset dining. Cap it off with a romantic cocktail at La Vecchia’s bar, where the lake view does all the talking.

Need essentials? You’re covered. Metro, LCBO, Shoppers Drug Mart and more are a short stroll away at Park Lawn & Lake Shore. And for next-level shopping and couture, Sherway Gardens is only 10 minutes away by car.

Presenting… Suite 5104! 

You’ll be swept away the moment you enter this expansive 1,544 sq ft southeast corner suite, where panoramic, unobstructed views from the 51st floor span the vastness of Lake Ontario, the sailboats of the Mimico Yacht Club, and the full majesty of the Toronto skyline and CN Tower.

Outfitted with durable floor tiles and a stylish section of green turf, it’s the perfect perch to curl into a book, savour a quiet moment, or unwind after a busy day in the city.

The welcoming foyer, with recessed ceiling, double closets, a guest powder room, and a walk-in pantry, flows into a spectacular chef’s kitchen, the true heart of this home. At its centre is an impressive, 11-foot-wide quartz island, ideal for gathering, entertaining, or spreading out your weekend market haul. Anchoring the space is a 30″ Thermador Freedom Induction Cooktop, offering unmatched versatility: cook with pots and pans of any shape or size, or up to six at once, wherever you place them. Complementing this is a large capacity 30″ Thermador Combination True Convection Oven, delivering precise, professional-grade results whether you’re baking fresh bread, roasting a holiday feast, or crisping a quick weeknight dinner. Paired with premium Thermador and Liebherr appliances and a sleek quartz backsplash, this kitchen brings gourmet function and style together in perfect harmony.
