For those on the hunt for a new condo who are also looking to soak up the very best of what Forest Hill has to offer, this stunning new listing on St. Clair West is waiting.
Fresh to the market via Chestnut Park Real Estate Limited's Deana Popovic, 2004 - 111 St. Clair Avenue West is an urbanite's dream.
Spanning more than 2,250 square feet, the luxe condo is part of the coveted Imperial Plaza Condominiums, formerly known as the Imperial Oil Building.
The historical structure -- which, for a time in the mid-19oos, was the tallest building in the city -- sits atop a section of the escarpment, affording those within it incredible views of the city, the lake, and the CN Tower. The building itself, featuring interiors clad with limestone, aluminum, bronze, marble, granite, and gold mosaic inlay tiles, serves as a manifestation of what heritage architect Michael McClelland calls "Conservative Modernism."
While the structure could be called vintage, its stripped-down simplicity and clean lines are as contemporary as the modern, Scandinavian-style spaces we see popping up across the city today. And that's all before you even enter the unit itself.

The condo apartment, asking $3,485,000, is complete with two (+1) bedrooms, three bathrooms, and soaring 13' ceilings. The sleek engineered hardwood floors and massive windows -- presenting unmatched views of the city's skyline -- stretch the eye even further than the already sprawling space initially allows.
The open-concept kitchen and living room space mean ease of entertaining, while multiple rooms for sleeping mean that guests don't have to leave in the dark of the night, should they wish to stay.
(Which they will.)
Taking an already phenomenal space to new levels, luxurious features like a powder room, a massive walk-in closet off the master bedroom, and a lush tub begging for a bath to be drawn up the ante on the airy condo.
Subzero, Wolf, and Miele appliances are sprinkled throughout the property, keeping in line with the apartment's upscale-everything feel.
Beyond the privacy of the unit itself, the building also features 20,000 square feet of amenity space; owners of private residences have exclusive private elevator, gym, and 21st-floor terrace access.
What's more, 111 St. Clair West stands in a location that is, for a city-lover, quite literally perfect. Never mind that the building's ground floor is fitted with a Longo's and an LCBO -- and that is, indeed, a major plus -- but the area is also bursting with eateries ranging from cafés to sushi spots, as well as small local businesses, parks, and banks. Whether you're hoping to pick up something tasty for dinner or head for a stroll through one of the city's more natural pockets, the ability to do so is steps from your front door.
And, for anything you need that's a little further out, the proximity to the TTC can't be beat.

The Imperial Oil Building is, according to Camrost Felcorp Inc., the largest all-welded steel frame structure in the world, thanks to its being built at the height of the Cold War.
There's something poetic about the prospect of transforming the space, which was initially crafted to serve as an alternative hospital or bomb shelter, into your home; your safe haven. Particularly at a time when feeling safe in your abode is proving itself to truly be one of life's greatest luxuries.
