Alterra introduces new penthouse suites in Toronto’s Bedford neighbourhood

A new nine-storey condo project consisting solely of 18 high-end penthouses is coming to Toronto’s Bedford neighbourhood.

Designed by Giannone Petricone Associates, suites at the 321 Davenport by Alterra building begin at $2,5 million with floorplans that range up to 4,000 sq. ft. Giannone Petricone Associates designed a minimalist and smooth, glass façade that moulds itself along the curvilinear road on which it sits.

“321 Davenport embraces the gentle density of the Bedford neighbourhood and is simultaneously a powerhouse in design. The entire private residence is influenced by the neighbourhood’s grace and is rooted in authentic craftsmanship. This is truly a unique residence unlike anywhere else in Toronto,” says Mary Medunic, Vice-President of Sales and Marketing at Alterra.

The lushness of the exterior is translated indoors through every surface by design firm U31. An intimate marble lobby with a curved concierge desk made entirely of natural stone establishes the high-design calibre carried throughout the rest of the building.

“There was thoughtful attention to function and details to create unexpected moments, as well as an overall harmonious vision for this boutique residence. The juxtaposition of light, airy spaces combined with rich satin brass accents and a multi-layering palette of creams, metals and warm woods translates to an understated yet opulent environment,” says Kelly Cray, Principal at U31.

Ensuring the privacy and security of a single-family home, construction will include acoustically-treated walls and flooring, solid concrete block party walls for sound insulation and added security, and multiple heating and cooling zones throughout each residence.

The amenities include a professional catering kitchen designed in consultation with local restaurant Sotto Sotto, who directed the layout and programming of the space. The catering kitchen allows residents to create an intimate dining experience, cocktail party or exclusive culinary evening with a private chef. The building will additionally feature a fitness centre, with private space dedicated to personal training.

“We have developed a private residence that perfectly captures the city’s maturity and appreciation for world-class design. At Alterra, we are meticulously involved in every detail of our developments, from our own designer-level finishes to ensuring acoustical privacy,” says Medunic. “We intimately understand the exceptionally high standards of our residents.”
