676 Richmond St W, Toronto
Overview
Loft conversion pioneers Bob Mitchell & Associates are behind these outstanding Queen West condos on a quiet tree lined portion of Richmond Street West. Industrial Revolution I is a former knitting mill that now is home to 20 character-filled, high quality hard lofts, known for their exposed brick and beam, hardwood floors, and large windows. You won't find fancy amenities here, but modern conveniences are included like air conditioning, underground parking and gas hook ups for BBQs outside. Almost every one of the suites has a terrace or patio and all of them have fireplaces. Some are multi-level and run as large as 2000 square feet.
Sound like home? The only downside about Industrial Revolution I is that these downtown Toronto condos are so exceptional, you won't see many of them coming up for sale. Working with an experienced Realtor might give you the edge you need.
