True marriage of old world charm and modern sophistication

Welcome to the historic Argyle Lofts at 183 Dovercourt Road: a true marriage of old world charm and modern sophistication. Built in 1919, the façade of the former Ideal Bread Company Factory features stone detailing and is divided into distinct bays by brick pilasters. Window design is unique to each level and reflects the original separation - by factory floors - of the processes of bread production. This is an authentic, one-of-a-kind Edwardian classical style loft in bustling Beaconsfield Village.

This beautifully designed and artfully decorated loft features rare, soaring 13 foot ceilings and breathtaking Toronto skyline views through alluring New York-style loft windows. Exposed ductwork, restored accent brick wall, and plank hardwood floors further add charm and character to this bright space. The timeless Art Deco-inspired bath is reminiscent of a by-gone era. A large, open concept living and dining area and generously sized bedroom round off this perfect loft.

183 Dovercourt Road is at the epicentre of the Toronto art scene and steps to galleries, boutiques, and the Drake and Gladstone Hotels.

The neighbourhood.

Beaconsfield is popular with members of Toronto's arts community who have gradually migrated westward along Queen Street to the unique and funky houses and studios found in this neighbourhood. The colourful shopping district on Dundas Street West features an eclectic mix of Portuguese markets, established cafes, and emerging restaurants. Queen Street West is home to a mix of boutique clothing stores, art galleries, and artisanal restaurants and bakeries. In the day, residents can be found biking and jogging in Trinity-Bellwoods Park, and at night, the scene comes alive in local haunts like The Drake Hotel, the Gladstone Hotel, Bellwoods Brewery, and bars along Ossington Avenue.

The Argyle Lofts sit on the former site of the Ideal Bread Factory, constructed in 1919 by Montreal architect Sydney Comber. The 5-storey building is an excellent example of Edwardian classical style applied to an industrial building. Additions to the north along Dovercourt in 1923 and 1933 were also designed by Comber. In use as a bakery until 1957, this building was converted to residential lofts in 2007. The factory clock still remains above the front entrance. Original architectural and engineering drawings for the building can be found in the Toronto Archives.
