If you've been priced out of owning in the inner city, this might be the unit that changes the math. Over 1,400 sq ft in the heart of Bankview — two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a dedicated office, and a bonus den, all in a layout where both bedrooms are separated from each other with their own bathroom nearby. Bring a roommate. Split the costs. Live steps from 17th Avenue for less than you'd pay renting a one-bedroom on your own. Once you're through the building's main entrance, a staircase takes you straight down to your own front door, no shared hallways, no neighbours on either side. The unit occupies the entire lower level of the building, offering privacy that most condos in this price range simply don't. The open-concept main living area is brighter than you'd expect, with pot lighting throughout, wide-plank laminate flooring, and windows that bring in natural light, keeping this space feeling clean and modern rather than confined. At over 215 sq ft, the living room has genuine breathing room, and the electric fireplace with built-in mantle gives it a proper focal point. The kitchen was renovated in 2023 with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, a deep undermount sink, and stainless steel appliances. It's a proper kitchen, not an afterthought. The primary bedroom is exceptional for a condo at this price — over 200 sq ft with a walk-in closet and a four-piece ensuite. The second bedroom is well-sized at nearly 130 sq ft, separated from the primary, and sits next to the three-piece main bathroom — a layout that genuinely works for a roommate without anyone sharing an ensuite. A dedicated office provides a proper work-from-home setup, and a separate den adds even more flexibility for how you use it. In-suite laundry in its own dedicated space and a covered assigned parking stall directly accessible from the unit level — no going outside to get to your car, which matters more than people realize come January. The unit was renovated in 2023 and rented at $2,300/month as recently as last summer — meaning a roommate contributing $1,100–$1,200 toward housing costs brings your effective monthly carry down to a number that's genuinely competitive with renting anywhere in this neighbourhood, let alone owning. Condo fees are $1,029/month and include heat, water, sewer, insurance, professional management, reserve fund contributions, snow removal, and trash — so your monthly utility exposure beyond the fee is minimal.
17th Avenue restaurants, coffee shops, and groceries are a short walk away. Downtown is minutes away by bike or a quick transit ride.
