Upstairs, a spacious loft bedroom and newly renovated ensuite blend seamlessly with the classic features and modern comforts. Backing onto Macdonald Gardens Park, the Wallis House offers both downtown living in a prime location simultaneously and your own private escape with abundant greenspace and a rooftop terrace.
