A look inside: $4.7M art gallery-inspired Toronto condo

This Toronto condo puts even the nicest gallery wall to shame.
The custom two-storey space is home to philanthropist Dr. Salah Bachir and his outstanding art collection. So if you’ve got $4,700,000 to spare, you could be its next owner.

More than 3,200 paintings and photographs adorn the walls, including works by Kent Monkman, Betty Goodwin, and Attila Richard Lukacs, not to mention one of the largest collections of Andy Warhol pieces.
Located at 2045 Lake Shore Boulevard West, the condo was originally two separate units – #3901 and #4001. In 2011, architectural firm Kohn Shnier connected them via a floating brushed steel staircase.
