111 Bathurst Street & 111 Bathurst Estates

When the word ‘hip’ is applied to a neighbourhood, it's generally being said by a soccer dad with his shirt firmly tucked into his jeans — no offence to soccer dads, because you should wear those jeans with pride — but in this case, hip really is the best word to describe this building and its location.

OneEleven Condos is located at 111 Bathurst in the ultra desirable King West neighbourhood, and this building flaunts its individuality from the moment you lay eyes on it; far from cookie cutter, this 17 storey condo rises above a brick podium, with off-centre glass panels and blocks of concrete and glass which jut out from the exterior.

To go with its stylish exterior, this building houses some very nice extras — lounge, media room, games room, party room, meeting room, shared rooftop deck with barbeques, guest suites, concierge, security guard, and parking garage.

Considering the youthful vibe of King West, King West condos for sale are a great choice for young professionals and couples. First time home buyers might find prices to be too high, but for those who can afford to pay a little more, you get a lot in return.

King West has garnered quite a reputation for swanky, minimalist designed lofts — and if you thought OneEleven Condos was going to drop the ball, think again. There are 255 Toronto lofts in this building, ranging in size from roughly 400 square feet to over 1900 for the largest units. And in keeping with King West loft design, every unit is impressive.

Buyers can expect minimalist design features like exposed concrete ceilings, walls, and pillars, but you wont get exposed ductwork or rafter ceiling like in some nearby conversions. These units feature floor to ceiling windows, European-style kitchens with stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, hardwood floors in living spaces and porcelain tiles in bathrooms, and large terraces.

True to its loft layout, many suites are spread over 2 storeys and feature window walls across both floors.

King West has quickly become on of the most desirable neighbourhoods in Toronto for young professionals, due in large part to the abundance of fantastic restaurants, cafes, bars, and micropubs. And with the Entertainment District nearby to the east, fashion boutiques to the north on Queen, and trendy bars around the corner in Liberty Village — what’s not to love?

From 111 Bathurst Street, you’re mere steps from that all important morning espresso — there’s Jimmy's Coffee on Portland, Brioche Dorée, Quantum Coffee, and Aroma Espresso Bar on King. Of course, it’s practically mandatory to have a Tim Hortons and Starbucks near every condo building in the city, so you’ll find them here as well, less than 2 minutes away.

Dining options are plentiful in this neighbourhood, and because of its youthful crowd, most restaurants are open until 2 am; for Asian-French fusion there’s the acclaimed Lee on King, Wilbur Mexicana for tacos, Lavelle for upscale French cuisine, Pizzeria Libretto for a unique wood fired pizza, Rodney’s Oyster House for seafood, Brassaii for Mediterranean, and many more.

Nightlife and food in this neighbourhood go hand in hand, and as such, many restaurants here also function as great pubs and bars — there’s Bier Markt for over a hundred different beers, Northern Maverick Brewing Co for craft beer and pub food, WVRST sausages and an abundance of craft beers, Fynn's of Temple Bar for pub food and cocktails, and countless others.

Sporting the number of the Great One himself, 111 Bathurst Street boasts a 99 Walk score, providing residents with a pedestrian friendly location.

Public transit riders who commute have it easy with east and westbound streetcars on King and Queen, and north and southbound streetcars and buses on Bathurst. For those who require subway service, there are several routes to carry you to St. Andrew Station.
