My Fisher-Underwood mansion profile was the highest viewed RE Play-by-Play blog post to date. Which goes to show that despite my spouting of useful info and opinions, you guys like ogling rich peoples’ places. That’s fine haha, just means I’m back for a little more shameless self-exposure, courtesy our pal, Drizzy Drake.

I got Penthouse walls, I stay high above your a**.

And I can see it all, my balcony is glass.

Funny, he’s not kidding. This line from “Overdose” is spot on, which you now get to see for yourself courtesy the MLS and your favourite Realtor.

Maybe record sales are down, maybe Drake got tired of watching the Raptors lose, maybe he’s over paying $3,361 in condo fees every month. Whatever it is, he decided it was time to sell his 22nd-storey gem in Yorkville, seen here on MLS.

Priced at $4.195 Million, the 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom suite has some finishes worthy of a whiskey commercial. Think, Wiser’s. There’s walnut flooring everywhere to go along with meticulous custom millwork, and the whole place has a very rich feel to it. That said, the place is equally tame and subdued. Not what you’d expect from a young guy with millions to throw around. It’s one of the most tasteful, mature decor schemes I’ve seen.

Drake’s also got himself a nice little bit of outdoor space. With 500 extra sq. ft. spread heated terraces outdoors, the penthouse has what it needs to set itself apart from some of its competition. And though his unit doesn’t face south out over the lake, he’s had plenty to take in, with exposure in each of the other three directions.

The building itself is a work of art. Though it’s a new build, One St. Thomas has all the stylings of a 1930’s high-rise. It’s been described in different outlets as both luxurious and a “fusion of sophistication and class”. Have a look at it in this video, but turn the sound down, or else you’re just hear the wind.

You’d think the amenities here have to justify the over $3k per month condo fees. There’s a pool, exercise facility and terrace, fairly standard options across the market. There’s also full valet service, which Drake can use to park either of the cars he gets a parking spot for. Keep in mind that condo fees are apportioned based on the square footage of a unit, so naturally the penthouses pay the most for their use of the exact same set of amenities. So, here’s hoping that his heat and hydro are lumped into this as well. Not that $3,000 is even going to be missed in this guy’s chequing account.

Is Drake’s pad what I’d be lining up to drop $4 Million plus on? Probably not. But given that he just sold off 2 Miami condos to Mario Chalmers of the Heat, he might have some bigger plans in the works. Maybe that’s some motivation to cut us a deal.
