About this home

Located within the former Purity Flour Mills head office, a Georgian-style brick-and-beam industrial building dating to approximately 1930, this third-floor suite offers approximately 3,301 square feet of workspace across a main level and mezzanine. Authentic industrial character, generous natural light, and a flexible open layout create an environment that readily adapts to creative studios, collaborative offices, showrooms, and client-facing professional practices. Currently configured as a showroom and working studio, the interior features exposed brick walls, custom wide-plank wood flooring, south-facing windows, and overhead skylights that bring natural light throughout. A sculptural staircase leads to the 271-square-foot mezzanine, where the pitched roofline, exposed wood structure, and overhead skylights create a more intimate workspace suited to a private office or focused work while maintaining a visual connection to the principal level below. The flexible layout readily accommodates an open studio, collaborative office, product showroom, or a combination of complementary workspaces. The suite can also be demised to accommodate a smaller occupancy while maintaining the character and functionality of the overall space. Located between Summerhill and The Annex, 287 Macpherson Avenue is a boutique brick-and-beam office building positioned along a quieter stretch of Macpherson Avenue, with convenient access to Avenue Road, Dupont Street, and the surrounding neighbourhood amenities. Suite 303 is well suited to design-led businesses, creative agencies, product showrooms, wellness and consulting practices, and boutique professional firms seeking a workspace with flexibility, architectural character, and a distinctive sense of place.
