It's hard to miss the glass penthouse perched atop a century old Edwardian building at 34 Rowanwood Avenue. Aptly named "The Perch," the custom built suite was constructed a few years ago to entice wealthy buyers or downsizers from the upscale Rosedale neighbourhood.

Priced at $2,595,000, the elegant penthouse spans one floor at 1,800 square feet with two terraces overlooking the treetops. The interior space is simple -- a minimalist aesthetic with white walls and clean lines. Featuring two bedrooms and bathrooms, including a marble ensuite, there's a separate area for the home office and access to a private elevator.

MOVE ON IF

You like to parade around in the buff. The space is decadent because of its impressive floor-to-ceiling windows and natural sunlight. You might need to wear a robe.
