The condo house?
It's a brand-new concept: labour-free home ownership
Down a tree-lined, brick-cobbled lane among the old manors of Toronto's posh Rosedale neighbourhood, the next step in the evolution of real estate is taking shape. Inside the sleek mansion at 1 May St., a woman is raising her voice over the crack squad of landscapers deployed across every square foot of the small front yard to demonstrate how the control panel of the house's "robot brain" commands a nervous system of heated floors and walkways, lighting, doors and sound systems.
The house can not only run itself, but manage its own affairs. The owner need never shop, clean, pay a bill or even answer the door. Everything has been taken care of. One of Toronto's most opulent homes may also be the answer to a commonplace question: should I buy a house or a condo?
