01 / THE OPPORTUNITY

Downsize the house. Upsize the light.

Our buyer was downsizing — and with that comes the questions. Where to live. How much space is actually needed. But the non-negotiable? A bright, happy space where she could work on her art and watch the sunsets.

We viewed many properties. Then this one — a corner loft at The Carlaw with a huge 270 sq ft wrap-around balcony. It made up for no backyard, and then some. She fell in love.
