384 Sunnyside Ave, Toronto
Overview
Found on Sunnyside Avenue one street west of Roncesvalles, The Abbey Lofts is the most beautiful church loft-conversion in Toronto, dating back to 1910 when it was a Methodist Church with a distinctly European Gothic style.
Known for its abundance of exposed limestone and stained glass windows, The Abbey Lofts offer a select 24 Toronto lofts with varying layouts and exposures across three-floors. The majority of the ground floor suites feature spacious terraces and sunken living rooms, with interior design finishes such as hardwood flooring, arched doorways, 17-foot wood-vaulted ceilings, and warm fireplaces. With outdoor space and a few extra amenities, these authentic loft-conversions have real character that will delight true loft enthusiasts.
And it’s just a short walk from High Park in the leafy suburb of Roncesvalles, close to many restaurants, cafes, and markets, plus all the outdoor activities and cultural attractions of Toronto’s largest green space.
