Arbour Glen

An urban oasis nestled amid ravine trees, with a view of Lawren Harris Park, the Group of Seven studios, and the Metro Reference Library. This south-facing apartment was the longtime home of a respected Canadian arts administrator, journalist, and diplomat, and reflects her taste in so many ways, with a quiet, casual elegance, and great natural light for reading in every room.

No need for a car: both subway lines are less than 10 minutes away, à pied. And your taxi/Uber will usually arrive before you can descend to the lobby.

Arbour Glen has long attracted interesting clientele, all the way back to TSO conductor Seiji Ozawa in the 1960s. Teachers, writers, civil servants, and architects are among its denizens. Gay-friendly building. The small turnover of apartments is its own seal of approval — people move in here to stay. Friendly, attentive staff round the clock, with extra cleaning daily during these covid times.

Compare its bounteous size and verdant Rosedale location with the typical new downtown Toronto condo, and you will see that Rosedale co-ops like this one are the unsung gems of urbane T.O. living, for size, value, and peace and quiet.

(Shh, don’t tell anyone, they are still a secret, even among many realtors.)

Suite 704

The efficient plan of this two bedroom suite provides a sense of spaciousness beyond its 1,175 square feet. Without any space lost to long hallways, every square inch is made useful. The private spaces of bedrooms and washrooms are cloistered together to one side of the entry, while the generous and open living / dining space can easily accommodate a group.

FLOOR PLAN

Neighbourhood Context

Naturally sequestered and protected from the nearby highrise streetscape by Rosedale Ravine, the context of Arbour Glen is a surprising respite under a canopy of trees. At once in the centre of the city, just steps to Yonge and Bloor, it is also within minutes of the Don Valley Parkway for instant city exodus by car, and a nature walker’s dream, with a front door to the forested Rosedale Ravine Trail.

WALKSCORE

95 out of 100. Daily errands do not require a car 7 minute walk from LINE 1 (YONGE-UNIVERSITY) and LINE 2 (BLOOR-DANFORTH) at the BLOOR STATION. Adjacent to Rosedale Ravine Trail.
