The gleaming Shangri-La Toronto is a hotel on the lower levels and residences above.

The cream most certainly rises to the top at the Shangri-La Toronto Residences.
The lower floors of the artfully designed glass-clad tower make up the renowned five-star hotel, the midsection contains condominium residences and the uppermost levels are devoted to what is known as the “private estate” collection. It is within this realm that one Shangri-La luxury condo distinguishes itself.
The views, soaring living room and square footage set the luxury condo apart.

“Typically, listings in luxury buildings in the Toronto core that are for sale within an $8 million to $12 million price range will not exceed an interior size of 3,500 square feet,” says Natasha Omrin, who is representing Suite 5402 with Barry Cohen, both of Barry Cohen Homes. This home, however, has a 4,431-square-foot layout.
Then, there’s the volume. At the heart of the luxury condo is a two-story living room with floor-to-ceiling windows that bring in panoramic views of the Toronto skyline, including the landmark CN Tower. An elegant central chandelier anchors the space, and a glass staircase with floating-style glass steps enhances the visual drama.
A glass staircase and aquarium bar are among the home’s notable features.
