Studio One Lofts121 Prescott AveStudio One Lofts at 121 Prescott Ave is a true lesson in Toronto lofts conversions. Converted from an old tannery, this beautiful building has all the features you would expect of the highest quality and most authentic conversions. Distressed wood pillars and beams are beautifully complimented by the units’ exposed brick and luxurious hardwood floors, while open concept studio layouts make the eleven foot ceilings seem even more grand. In some suites, beautiful spiral staircases stretch through these high ceilings, reaching up to rooftop terraces where you can enjoy the sights and the sounds of the city bustling around you. Developed by Ontonio Gottdenker in 1996, this building features 27 units, complete with exterior parking spots, but with the Junction and Coro Italia close by, as well as the easily accessible St. Clair bus running along nearby St. Clair Avenue, you certainly do not need a vehicle to live at Studio One! The Junction offers a staggering variety of retail shops and restaurants, and as it is quickly becoming a furniture and design destination in its own right, this neighbourhood is becoming the “it” district for finding antiques and reclaimed/repurpose furniture. Health nut? Rejoice when you discover the numerous alternative health practitioners and yoga/pilates studios in this area, and while you’re in the neighbourhood, enjoy the raw food restaurant and organic grocery shops. If you prefer your food on the “cooked” side, Mediterranean, Thai, Indian, bakeries, Chinese, and Vietnamese restaurants are all on the menu in this popular district, but for some of the best pizza and gelato Toronto has to offer, head over to Corso Italia, a lower-key alternative to Little Italy, where the focus is unmistakably the food! You’ll enjoy traditional bakeries as well as family-run pizzerias in this friendly neighbourhood. Studio One Lofts: a classic loft conversion and the gateway to two of Toronto’s most beloved neighbourhoods! |
