Royal Mews

Oh my goodness! There are five lucky homeowners here in spacious four-level townhouses, each with bay windows and a large top-floor deck overlooking the city. Built in 1994 by Mydland Enterprises, these terrace up the hill, with the one at each end enjoying a front corner turret-like corner projection topped by a deck, and the three middle homes each having a deck facing east towards downtown.

Each home starts with a two-car garage (three little ones?) plus room for another two vehicles on each driveway. After deducting the 577 or so square feet of garage and utility space each home above offers more than 1,900 sq. ft. of living space. Each suite has a small balcony off the kitchen for barbecuing, although the real sunning is done 'way up top, past the third-level bedrooms to the fourth-floor master suite, which in each home offers a vaulted ceiling, luxury bath with jetted tub, views and that deck. Both living rooms and the master bedroom suites have natural-gas fireplaces.

Interior finishing in these homes is first class, as is the exterior cladding of slate-grey brick and cultured stone tiles. The five homes are a convention condominium, so each owner maintains their interior property, and the five together own and maintain the building structure, exteriors and land.

Exterior doors and windows are also common property for maintenance and future replacement.
