Hi Solaris, I was actually looking for some opinion for the floor plan of 665. Can you tell me about your opinion on the 665 design?

albertwong1 ... here's my thoughs on the Ultimo 665 suite ~
PROs
- linear kitchens are cool + modern, just maybe not too functional
- good size bedroom (10'8" x 11'8" I think?) with 2 sided windows
- walk in closet !!
- normally I'm not a fan of laundry closet in the bedroom, but in this case given its only a 1B unit I think it works quite well, except for the noise ... but then you can control when to do laundry
- west view will be unobstructed by ~8s office buildings to the west, north view may be partially obstructed by the brown Crossroads Condominiums on the other side of Sheppard
CONs
- I wouldn't like the balcony because its enclosed by on wall on the left and privacy screening on the right, but it may be favoured by others would want a sense of enclosure on their balcony
- without a doubt, the entrance hallway is a waste
- the living/dining/kitchen is about 17'6" (I think), which means minus kitchen cabinets you only have 15'6" left, that may be a bit tight for living + dining room furniture
- given the odd location of walls, windows + doors, I can't quite figure out how you can place furniture to make sense in the room
- I think the small den will be useless given its size, you may as well as for a extended walk-in closet and extend the right bedroom wall right down to create a usable corner in the living/dining room
- the linear kitchen may not look good enough if you don't have integrated appliances such as dishwasher + refridgerator with cabinetry finish ... but means more $$
- lack of privacy since balcony is shared with unit abutting to the east
