The Alto is one of two condo flat designs Minto is offering in Centro and it's got an open, airy feel to it.

This 1,038-square-foot condominium would be great for a single or a couple starting out. Its neighbour, the Brio, is slightly larger and more contemporary and this design might be well suited to the downsizer.

The Alto has a starting price of $210,400 and comes with two bedrooms. Condo fees are about $56 per month.

The condo flats are walk-up units with building entrances on the front and the back that both lead into the units.

In the Alto model, the front and rear entrances deposit into the foyer where you'll also find a coat closet. A short hall leads to the living area and the kitchen bypassing a low wall with a view of the livingroom. It's an open concept with the livingroom and dining area set under a standard coffered ceiling.

There's plenty of light in this space with two windows flanking the patio door to a small balcony.

An island with curved eating bar sets the kitchen apart from the dining room.

Original plans called for a computer niche tucked into the hallway leading to the bedrooms, but it has been deleted in the model. Instead, it is showing with a kitchen pantry and the main bathroom has been enlarged to also include a shower stall beside the tub.

The powder room in the Alto is spacious and it's located next to a storage/utility/laundry room. The Alto's master bedroom sports a large window and in this model Minto has turned the second bedroom into a den.

The Alto is located in Centrepointe. Visit the Minto sales centre at 122 Centrepointe Dr. It's open Monday-Thursday from 12-8 p.m. and weekends from 12-5:30 p.m. For information call 225-8417 or visit www.minto.com.
