Enticing, enchanting, and illustrious; the Kensington Market neighborhood is a highly desirable place to live in and invest in, and Kensington Market Lofts (located at 160 Baldwin St & 21 Nassau St) are located right in the middle of all of it. Standing at 7 storeys tall, and containing 145 units in total (of which the smallest of these are 521 feet², and the largest of these units are 1757 feet²), Kensington Market Lofts proves that location can really be almost everything in a loft-style condominium. Developed by Context Development, architected by a triage comprised of Robert Barnett Architect, Kohn Shnier Architects, as well as Paul Oberst, with all interior design done by Crayon Design, and currently managed by 360 Community Management, Kensington Market Lofts was built in 1927 and it’s quality construction shows. In 1927, the building was originally an elementary school, but then it became a college, and in 1999, was repurposed as a residential loft-style condominium. In 2006, Kensington Market neighborhood was designated a National Historic Site of Canada. Offered at Kensington Market Lofts, residents have access to a variety of 1-bedroom units, as well as 1-bedroom plus den units and 2-bedroom units. In-unit features for buyers include ten-foot ceilings, large open-concept designs, and private balconies, not to mention modern appliances and hardwood flooring. As far as the in-building amenities go, homebuyers will be able to have access to an enter phone system, a party room, a meeting room, a parking garage, as well as elevator access. By the way that the historical average PSF of Kensington Market Lofts is going up, real estate investors have a lot of potential for seeing a positive return on investment.The streets around 160 Baldwin St & 21 Nassau St are chock-full of bright boutiques and succulent stores, as this IS Kensington Market neighborhood; one of the most-visited and shopped at neighborhoods in Toronto. Virtually any type of shop or store that buyers can think of can be found on Baldwin & Nassau, not to mention Spadina Ave., which houses the eastern portion of Kensington Market, riddled with cafes, grocery stores, pharmacies, fast food places, restaurants, as well as some bars/pubs, not to mention a couple of banks. This is all great, and buyers could probably spend days just seeing what Kensington Market neighborhood has to offer, but regarding what can be found all over the rest of downtown Toronto, residents can catch the TTC transit bus at the west end of Nassau St. (at the intersection of Nassau & Bathurst). Another (and much closer) transportation method is the TTC streetcar, with a stop at Nassau & Spadina, just to the east of Kensington Market Lofts. By heading north on Spadina Ave. all the way up to Spadina & Bloor, buyers can come to the Spadina subway station (one of the busiest and most arterial stations on the entire TTC subway system). For the motorists looking for the nearest highway, heading SOUTH on Spadina to Lake Shore Blvd. grants these motorists access to an on-ramp and off-ramp to the Gardiner Expressway.
