The Residences of 488 University Avenue – Building Details

488 University Ave is a 55-storey tower of radiant blue glass and steel.
Despite being named “The Residences of 488 University Avenue,” the building is in fact a mixed-use property.
The ground floor is home to a shimmering 3-storey podium with retailers and a signature restaurant.
Above it are 18-floors of office space, while the remaining 37 levels are dedicated to residential suites.

The building also offers two full floors and over 30,000 sq. ft. of shared amenity space (IV Design).
While a lot of condos claim to be beautiful, 488 University Ave proves it with 4 International Property Awards.
These include Best Architecture, Best Residential High-Rise, Best Condo and Best Interior Design.
Inside and out, 488 University Ave is a winner.
488 University Ave Unit 3410 – The Space

This single photo speaks volumes about Unit 3410.
It reveals that the condo is spacious and well-lit by wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows.
It also shows the quality and craftsmanship you can expect, from the sleek kitchen island to the sturdy hardwood floors.

Unlike the tight squeeze of most Toronto condos, Unit 3410’s living and dining areas are open and uncluttered.
The condo’s size can only be appreciated when stripped of all its furniture and accessories.

1075 sq. ft. of open-concept space, soaring-ceilings, and giant glass-panels—Unit 3410’s scale is epic.
As a corner unit with a South-East exposure, residents have clear views of the CN Tower and Lake Ontario.

The city comes alive at night, sizzling with electricity and excitement.
488 University Ave Unit 3410 – The Kitchen

Unit 3410’s kitchen reflects its surroundings like a mirror, instantly catching the eye.
The kitchen is clad in the finest materials, including marble counters, glossy cabinets, and a brick back-splash.

A close up shows pot-lights bouncing off the gleaming brown cabinets—almost as if they were embedded there.
The kitchen is also very practical.
For example, it has a marble island with a sink, storage and room for meals.

Residents can choose to eat in the dining room, or pull up a chair at the kitchen island.
Unit 3410’s kitchen is also outfitted with state-of-the-art appliances, including:
- An integrated Libherr fridge and wine cooler
- An AEG stove, microwave and dishwasher
- A stacked AEG washer and dryer
488 University Ave Unit 3410 – Master Bedroom & Bath

The master bedroom boasts a spectacular view and plenty of sunlight.
It also features hardwood floors, pot-lights, sliding doors for easy access, and a custom-made closet.

The built-in closet contains several shelves and drawers for all your clothes, shoes and accessories.
And to top it off, the master bedroom incorporates a 5-piece ensuite bath.

One of those 5 pieces is a freestanding soaker tub for a relaxing bathing experience.
If you prefer showers, the ensuite bath has one of those too, along with ceramic floors, an extra-long vanity, and pot-lights.
Oh, and did we mention the built-in TV and Bose speaker system?
488 University Ave Unit 3410 – Second Bedroom & Bath

If the master bedroom has a view of Lake Ontario, this one makes up for it with a view of the CN Tower.
Besides offering stunning glimpses of downtown Toronto, the floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the entire room in sunlight.

With hardwood floors, a custom-made closet, and tons of space, this is a second bedroom in name only.
While it lacks an ensuite bath, there’s one right across the hall.

The 4-piece washroom dazzles with glistening white and gray surfaces.
The bathroom mixes clean lines and cool colours with practical elements such as ceramic floors, pot-lights, a broad vanity, and under-sink storage.
And like the ensuite, it also contains a soaker tub with a detachable showerhead.
488 University Ave Unit 3410 – Den & Balcony

Unit 3410’s den makes for a cozy home office.
It can also be used as a guest room, storage area, library, rec room, or anything else you need (e.g. a walk-in closet or art studio).

Unit 3410’s balcony uses glass-panels instead of solid concrete for an uninterrupted view.
At 165 sq. ft., the massive balcony has enough room for several pieces of furniture and accessories.

Sectionals, beanbags, chairs, tables, benches, patio umbrellas and hanging plants—there’s room for all.
The only thing better than the scale is the scenery.

For example: on one side you have City Hall and Toronto’s tallest skyscrapers.
And on the other…

You have the CN Tower, OCAD, the AGO and Lake Ontario.
But the real magic happens at night…

This is when the city transforms itself, twinkling with lights and buzzing with excitement.

About Grange Park

New York has Park Avenue, Paris has Avenue Champs-Elysées and Toronto has University Avenue – the ultimate landscape of society, culture, and commerce.
This incredible praise for 488 University’s location is fully justified.
In fact, the neighbourhood of Grange Park is home to Toronto’s best galleries, biggest hospitals and most famous universities.

You’ll find OCAD, the University of Toronto, Mt. Sinai Hospital and the AGO all in this one neighbourhood.

University Avenue offers…an array of fashion boutiques, cultural and entertainment venues, specialty markets, coffee shops and some of the city’s hottest restaurants.
How about some greenery?

After 13 years and $15 million, the newly revitalized green-space boasts fountains, sculptures, splash-pads, playgrounds, an off-leash dog area, LED lighting, interactive water features, and more!

Is it any wonder a park so beautiful won the City of Toronto’s Urban Design Award? (wyliepoon, Flickr)
