You can live next to one of Toronto's fanciest restaurants at this $4 million condo

Many Torontonians know of 1 Benvenuto Place as the home ofScaramouche— aka comedian Rick Mercer’s “all-time favourite Toronto restaurant.”

And sure, Scaramouche provides a exquisite dining experience, but anyone who's done their research also knows 1 Benvenuto Place is more than the restauarant. It's equally sought after for its luxury homes.

Originally built as an apartment building in the 1950s, Benvenuto seems like it was always destined to become an upscale condo thanks to the design of notable多伦多建筑师彼得·迪金森.1 Benvenuto Pl Toronto

Appliances are by Miele, Sub-Zero and Thermador.

Now, the units show off contemporary design that isn't just a cookie-cutter glass condo. And this three-bedroom, three-bathroom unitlisted for $4,287,500definitely shows off.

Switzer also told blogTO that this unit is currently owned by one of Canada's top actors... although which Canadian actor owns it is still a secret. Your guess is as good as ours.

The bar area off the dining room and kitchen is perfect when entertaining.

But whoever it is, they clearly have great taste.
