Building Details

85 Bloor Street and Quick Overview.
85 Bloor Street – Quick Overview.

Rising 20 floors and composed of concrete, 85 Bloor is surrounded by the very best of Toronto.

This includes the city’s hottest clubs, coolest cafes, trendiest restaurants, and greatest shopping destinations.

And with the Bloor-Yonge station right across the street, getting around has never been easier.

The Space

A quick glance at 85 Bloor Unit 1208.

The unit consists of a master bedroom, a washroom, and a den large enough to house a double-bed.

Some of its most striking features include 9-foot ceilings, track lighting, laminate floors, and luxurious gray walls.

First of all, this image is 3D render and not a real photo, but it looks almost real.
This virtually staged photo reveals the endless decor possibilities.

Floor-to-ceiling windows ensure the living room is always well-lit, while a well-placed armchair offers the ideal spot for reading.

Besides improving flow from one room to another, the condo’s open-concept design also makes it seem more spacious.

The Kitchen

So in this photo we see the kitchen. It's a rather beautiful mix of colors and materials, and so has a nice balance.
85 Bloor’s kitchen mixes contemporary and classic elements.

The kitchen blends wood, stainless steel, laminate and granite, creating an almost dazzling array of textures and colours.

In addition to looking beautiful, the kitchen is also very functional. Granite counters prevent stains and laminate floors do a better job of resisting spills than traditional hardwood.

Here we see the kitchen from another angle. It has so many different light sources.
Multiple cabinets and drawers offer plenty of storage for cookware, while pot-lights provide ample lighting.

Appliances include:

  • A stainless steel fridge, stove and dishwasher
  • A built-in microwave
  • A washer and dryer

Bedroom & Washroom

Another virtual photo. This one shows the bedroom and looks almost real.
This virtually staged photo shows just how elegant the master bedroom can be.

85 Bloor’s master bedroom is spacious in scope, calming in colour, and offers plenty of storage.

Another view of the bedroom. This one shows the closet.
A large mirrored closet has more than enough room for clothes, shoes and accessories.

The giant glass doors on the left allow residents to walk directly out onto the balcony.

With so many windows and doors, residents can expect natural sunlight all year round.

The washroom is no less stunning. Clean, modern and beautiful, it comes with a bathtub, extra-long shelf, and wide mirror.

The broad wooden shelf can be used either for storing items or for decor.

Den & Balcony

85 Bloor Street also includes a multi-purpose den. It can serve as storage, double as an office, or even function as a second bedroom.

This artist's rendering depicts the den as a classy office space.

85 Bloor’s balcony is accessible via the living room or master bedroom.

The view from inside is almost as impressive as the one from outside.

Residents can relax, take in the view, or engage in friendly conversation over drinks.

A small table and few chairs is all it takes to create a patio-like atmosphere.
