Many people find staring at fish soothing.
In fact, there’s tons of research that suggests that interacting with fish in aquariums lowers blood pressure and anxiety, while having a positive effect on mood as well as feelings of relaxation.
This is probably why the Ripley’s Aquarium in Toronto is so popular and dentists frequently have fish tanks in their waiting rooms.
Exposed brick walls add character to the condo.
So, if you’re craving that blissed-out feeling of staring at fish going back and forth in a tank, we have found the condo for you!
The foyer and the kitchen.
705/704 – 1430 Yonge St. has a built-in aquarium right smack in the middle of the kitchen.
A view into the living room.
Would it be weird to cook fish while staring at fish? Maybe!
The living room.
But apart from the giant fish tank in the condo, this two-unit condo could offer 2,495 square feet of luxurious living space in The Clairmont.
The primary bedroom.
If combined, the 705 and 704 units would boast four bedrooms, five bathrooms and five balconies.
Views of the city from the living room.
The units aren’t currently a joint unit. In fact, both units are for sale individually.
The living room in 704.
704 is listed for $860,000, and is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom south-facing condo.
One of the bedrooms in 704.
It’s pretty basic as far as midtown condos go.
The kitchen in 704.
It has a nice open-concept layout and a modern kitchen with granite countertops.
The other bedroom in 705.
Unit 705, on the other hand, is listed for $2,599,000 and is significantly more intriguing.
Cookie Monster art, a massage chair and an aquarium? What more could you want!
According to the listing, this executive corner unit has been fully renovated with $220,000 in premium upgrades and high-end finishes throughout.
The primary bedroom ensuite.
The unit has two bedrooms plus a den, three bathrooms and three balconies.
The views of the city from the primary bedroom.
Since it is a corner unit, it also has south, west and north views of the city.
A TV by the bathtub.
The primary bedroom features a walk-in closet and a four-piece ensuite with a TV, which is decadent for watching a movie while you have a bath.
A view of the apartment.
There’s also custom lighting and automated shades throughout and perhaps the piece de la resistance is the Cookie Monster art in the living room.
The aquarium is integrated in the kitchen.
Kidding, it’s the stunning Starfire Aquarium.
The open concept layout of 704.
Combined both units are listed for $3,459,000 and come with all the luxurious amenities The Clairmont offers, including guest parking, a gym, and a 24-hour concierge.
Oriole Park and David A. Balfour Park are just steps away.
Also it’s worth mentioning that unit 705, the one with the aquarium, is also available to rent at $7,700 a month – just in case you want to test run being a fish parent.
