About this home

Rare opportunity to acquire an iconic 11,634 sq. ft. post-and-beam building in the heart of Trinity Bellwoods. Originally constructed over a century ago, this remarkable property blends historic character with modern functionality and future potential. Exposed triple brick, heavy timber construction, soaring 12-foot ceilings, expansive windows, and abundant natural light create an inspiring environment unlike anything found in conventional office buildings. Steeped in history, the property retains its original oversized carriage doors and was once home to the first Coca-Cola bottling operation outside the United States, established in 1906, reflecting its remarkable industrial heritage. Located moments from Trinity Bellwoods Park and the vibrant shops, cafés, restaurants, and culture of Queen West, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, creativity, and connectivity in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods. An artist's, designer's, architect's, production company's, or creative entrepreneur's dream, the building is ideally suited for studio, gallery, workshop, collaborative office, or owner-occupier use. Rare 600V / 600A three-phase electrical service supports a wide range of creative, production, studio, workshop, and light industrial applications. Residential zoning with existing legal non-conforming office use presents a unique opportunity for office, creative studio, owner-occupier or potential residential/live-work conversion, subject to purchaser's due diligence and approvals. A truly irreplaceable character asset where history, creativity, and opportunity converge in one of Toronto's most dynamic and coveted neighbourhoods.
