Normally, condos in Toronto, even the really expensive ones, are devoid of character or charm. 

They're often these glass boxes in the sky with sleek, cold finishes that you just know will show every single fingerprint ever. 

And as someone who spends way too much of their time looking at the interiors of homes and condos, one can't help but yearn for the apartments of Paris or Rome.

The living room with a gas fireplace. 

The ones that are filled with years of stories and quirks, with ornate moulding, soaring ceilings, jaw-dropping chandeliers, charming windows, and marble fireplaces—really, just anything that doesn't feel like something out of some dystopian sci-fi film. 

The dining room with custom moulding. 

But 5202- 50 Yorkville Ave. manages to capture the old-world charm of a European apartment while still being smack in the middle of downtown Toronto. 

The kitchen hood vent is a custom brass hood. 

According to realtor Barry Cohen, the owners bought it as a shell of a condo. 

A fireplace in a bedroom is so cozy and European. 

"[They] proceed to finish interior on their own with no expense spared," he told blogTO.

And the results seem well worth it. 

The primary ensuite. 

The three-bedroom, four-bathroom condo spans over half the building's floor plate.

It has 12-foot ceilings, onyx floors and three gas fireplaces with marble mantles. 

The views from the living room. 

It also has, as Cohen says: "Views like no other." 

Imagine playing the piano while looking over the city. 

The floor-to-ceiling windows offer stunning views of Lake Ontario, the CN Tower, and the rest of the city. 

Even when you're washing dishes you have a view. 

Not to mention, there are two private balconies for you to also enjoy the views.

The domed ceilings with custom plaster and crown moulding, as well as the custom wall panelling throughout the condo, really make it feel like you've stepped into a Regency castle. 

A powder room. 

But despite how old-world the apartment looks, the amenities couldn't be more modern. 

Even the kitchen has coved ceilings. 

The kitchen is decked out with granite counters, integrated Miele appliances and an 87-inch Lacanche stove, which if you know, you know. 

The primary bedroom. 

The bedrooms are, of course, fit for royalty.

The primary bedroom features two closets and an ensuite that belongs in the Gritty Palace. 

Even the smallest things are beautifully designed. 

The attention to detail in this condo is unmatched, but definitely not everyones taste. For some this is all a bit too much. 

The dining room with a Murano glass chandelier. 

But for those who love this design style, it's a masterpiece. 

A study or games room with fireplace. 

In addition to all the luxury additions to the condo, like a wine cellar and two private elevators, you're also living in the Four Seasons. 

A bedroom. 

This means you have access to all the amenties the five-star hotel has to offer including, a spa, sauna, gym, and swimming pool, and residents can even have their cars parked by valet staff for when they really feel like living in luxury.

Built-in bookcases and beautiful wall panelling make this room pop. 

But when you want to live like royalty, it comes at a price.

And that price is $18,800,000. Although, it is worth noting that is a drop from the original listing price of $19,250,000.
