Just a stroll away from there, in the Bankers Hill quarter, a sleek, contemporary home built in 2017 by local firm Safdie Rabines Architects provides a nice contrast to its turn-of-the-century neighbors. The three-story, 7,000-square-foot home includes a ground-floor retail space with a street entrance and shared garage. High ceilings and quality finishes throughout culminate in a two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse on the third floor.

The penthouse features an open plan and kitchen defined by a massive 20-foot island with waterfall edges.
