Toronto condo for sale at $10 million blends Japanese and Scandinavian design
Japandi design, for the uninitiated, is the harmonious fusion of Scandinavian simplicity and Japanese elegance, creating a style that feels both modern and timeless.
The design style is definitely having a moment, and when you see how stunning it can look in unit 2402 at 10 Bellair St., you'll likely understand why it's becoming such a phenomenon.
Rooted in minimalism, this aesthetic combines the Scandinavian love for functionality and coziness (known as hygge) with the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, which celebrates natural beauty and imperfection.
The result is a serene, uncluttered environment with muted colour palettes, clean lines, natural materials, and subtle textures.
The 3,800-square-foot condo exudes a calm sophistication, blending the warmth of Scandinavian interiors with the Zen-like tranquillity of Japanese design.
But it was no small feat to create an "oasis in the sky."
The condo, which sold two years ago for just over $5 million, underwent an extensive renovation with the help of designer and builder, Julian Janamian, who spearheaded the design and construction.
The owner wanted a residence that was an escape from the hustle and bustle of downtown Toronto.
"Our inspiration was taken from the serene tones and materials of Scandinavian and Japanese design, using a muted and minimalist palette and carefully blending subtle textures with sculptural elements to create a distinct, spa-like feel," Janamian told blogTO.
"The fixtures and finishes used are of the highest calibre – purposely curated to create a residence of the most elevated quality."
Throughout the condo you'll find elements like custom European white oak floors and artisanal hand-applied plaster walls provide a warm and organic backdrop to the sleek, minimalist aesthetic.
2402- 10 Bellair St. boasts two bedrooms, three bathrooms and an open-concept layout.
The condo's main living spaces are enhanced by 10-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, which fill the space with natural light and accentuate the home’s sense of calm.
The kitchen is nothing short of luxurious, with Gaggenau appliances, Taj Mahal quartzite counters, and bespoke white oak cabinetry.
The primary suite is a treat, complete with unobstructed views of the city and the lake.
Of course, it wouldn't be complete without a spa-like ensuite featuring a steam shower, heated floors, and a custom stone vanity.
Every detail in this residence has truly been designed with intention, from the fluted glass accents and satin nickel hardware to the Bocci receptacles and LED-lit closets.
Home automation controls motorized drapery, invisible plastered-in speakers, and integrated security systems.
As for outdoor space, there are three private balconies with views of the Toronto skyline and waterfront.
Listing agent Stefan Stepien from PSR Realty emphasized just how extraordinary this home is.
"The renovation of this unit from conception to execution exemplifies luxury in Yorkville to the highest degree. Myself and the team at PSR are honoured to represent this unit and are excited to have a future buyer be able to call this home," he said.
However, the future buyer is going to have to have the big bucks to call this place home. 2042-10 Bellair St. is listed for $9,888,000.
