Contemporary Charm Meets Skyline Views At This Roncy Condo

If you’ve ever wished you could live among the trees without giving up the skyline — or be steps from a farmer’s market and still catch the CN Tower from your terrace — this Roncesvalles condo might just check all your boxes.

Tucked into a mid-rise building just off Roncesvalles Avenue, Suite 618 at 38 Howard Park Avenue delivers the kind of lifestyle balance you don’t often see in Toronto condos.

It’s not a sky-high tower, nor a heritage walk-up — but something smart in between: a contemporary, design-forward residence that actually feels grounded in its neighbourhood. Not to mention it’s a five minute walk to the biggest backyard in the city, High Park.

Inside, the 2-bed, 2-bath suite is clean and quietly elegant, with wide-plank hardwood, floor-to-ceiling glass, and a split-bedroom layout that gives everyone a little breathing room. The open living area is the social centre of the home, leading directly onto one of the biggest perks of this unit: a 240+ sq. ft. terrace that wraps the southern edge of the building.

And this isn’t just any outdoor space. With two defined zones, a gas line, and water hookup, this terrace is ready for just about anything — morning espresso, evening barbecue, or late-night city gazing. From here, you can see the CN Tower rising above the canopy of High Park and Roncy rooftops, a reminder that you’re never far from the action, even when things feel calm.

Our Favourite Thing

The terrace — not just for its size, but for its functionality. Split into two zones with gas and water lines already in place, it invites real use: weekday dinners, container gardens, even a cozy fire table setup. It’s rare to find outdoor space this versatile in a mid-rise, especially one with a view.

The kitchen leans quietly luxe with integrated Bosch and Thermador appliances, Caesarstone surfaces, and full-height cabinetry that takes full advantage of the ceiling height. And while the finishes are undeniably modern, there’s nothing cold about this space — it feels liveable, welcoming, and a little more considered than most.

Specs

Beyond the unit itself, the building sits at the crossroads of convenience and character. Roncesvalles is one of those rare Toronto pockets where things still feel human-scaled — where bakeries, bookshops, and bars still thrive, and locals can actually walk to the train, the streetcar, or the park. (Pro tip: the UP Express is just a short stroll away — Pearson in 25, Union in 8.)

Whether you’re swapping a house for a more manageable footprint, getting your foot in the west-end market, or simply craving a home that reflects both style and street life, Suite 618 makes a convincing case.
