About this home

Set within Toronto's vibrant Bloorcourt Village enclave, One Roof Garden Lane is a rare live-work loft conversion that seamlessly blends industrial heritage with contemporary design. Originally conceived as a warehouse, the building has been meticulously transformed into an expansive and highly adaptable loft environment, offering approximately 7,500 square feet of refined residential and commercial-style space. Defined by its authentic industrial character, soaring proportions, and thoughtful renovation, the property presents a singular opportunity for those seeking an architecturally significant space equally suited for living, creating, and entertaining. The most likely buyer is not simply shopping for square footage, they are seeking a distinctive urban asset with identity: a founder's private headquarters, a creative office, a design studio, a gallery, a showroom, a live-work residence, or a private event-oriented environment. The building can support immediate occupancy while preserving longer-term optionality and possible redevelopment. This space should not be overlooked as it would make an excellent headquarters, creative commercial use, hybrid residential-work programming, private events and studio operations.
