The Mount Pleasant West neighbourhood is known to many Torontonian urbanites as the host of Davisville Village (the speciality bakeries are beyond delicious!), the Kay Gardner Beltline Park & Trail and the Le Corbu Lofts (194 Merton Street). This ideal neighbourhood coupled with highly desired hard lofts makes purchasing a new home here a smart investment!The Le Corbu hard lofts are the result of a conversion, from 5 storey office building, to fantastically spacious hard lofts by 2003 (this building still stands 5 storeys tall and possesses 34 loft units). Overseeing the office-to-loft conversion was 664215 Ontario Limited (Bill Elias) & Shram Homes (developers), Richard Wengle Architects and Robin Nadel (interior designer). The exterior of Le Corbu is an attractive blend of smooth off-white cement, with a transparent glass & light-grey steel architecturally ‘stepped’ centre piece (Art Deco architecture style).The interior hard loft units come in varied styles and square footage, beginning with 1 bedroom with 1 bath (700 square feet) and scale up to 2 bedrooms with 2 baths and 2 bedrooms + den and 2 full baths (1343 + square feet). Anticipated features that homebuyers will see within these hard lofts are 10-foot concrete ceilings, sliding barn doors, expansive windows, hardwood & laminate flooring, exposed pipework, modern appliances, spacious bathrooms, open spaces, large doorways and clean lines.Le Corbu Lofts offer a small handful of amenities such as private rooftop terraces with garden, squash/racquet court, exercise room and enter phone system. The proof is in the pudding when it comes to resale values…Le Corbu has excellent potential for a positive return on investment. Orion Management is onsite to oversee the day to day operations of this loft building and the needs of its residents.The street borders that keeps Le Corbu Lofts tucked away from the main hub of this city is Pailton Crescent, Merton Street, Yonge Street and Balliol Street. Public transit users have super-easy access to the Davisville subway station or Yonge Street buses by simply walking west on Balliol Street to Yonge Street. Homebuyers who prefer to drive and require highway pick up, can do so by heading north on Yonge Street or on Mt. Pleasant Road to Eglinton Avenue (west connects with Allen Road for highway 401 and east connects to the Don Valley Pkwy).Buyers only have to take a few steps to access a light sprinkling of amenities like a pub, restaurants, café and food mart. A stroll to Balliol Street & Yonge Street or Yonge Street & Davisville Avenue, for a broader selection of amenities (grocery stores, restaurants, pharmacy, post office, cafes, fast food eateries, spa, business services, retail shops and bars).A quick walk south of Merton Street will place homebuyers in direct touch with the Kay Gardner Beltline Trail (excellent option for cycling, jogging, nature walks, picnicking and more). This trail ends in the east at Kay Gardner Beltline Park at Mt. Pleasant Road and extends west all the way to Allen Road & Eglinton Avenue.
