15 Beverley Street is a modern three bedroom, two bathroom penthouse overlooking Queen West. Urban living doesn't come cheap anymore (if it ever did), but at $1.6 million, this luxury condo maximizes outdoor space with a rooftop pool, large terrace, and shared sundecks.

Designed by the Toronto-based CORE Architects, the newly built 12 Degrees Condominiums is a mostly glass structure, 11-storeys high. The transparent building is topped by an impressive cantilevered glass penthouse, including this suite, spanning 1,585 square feet with a wrap-around terrace.

15 Beverley St. might sound familiar to those die-hard Frank Gehry fans. The controversial development was built on the site of the famous architect's childhood home, and while the community initially opposed the demolition, Gehry, himself, didn't seem to care.

Art lovers. The city block includes some impressive art and design staples including the Art Gallery of Ontario and the nearby tabletop design of OCAD. It's also about a 10 minute walk away from the heart of the Financial District.

MOVE ON IF

You need more bathrooms or a second parking spot. $1.6 million buys you just two bathrooms (including the ensuite) and a single compact underground spot.
