A Centennial Methodist Church…Neo-Gothic architecture from 1901….it can only be The Church Lofts!The Church Lofts (701 Dovercourt Road in the Little Italy neighbourhood) is an exceptional hard-loft conversion, with completion in 2010. Wearing both the developers hat and the architecture’s hat was Bernard Watt of BWA Architects (he also brought Dovenco Developments onboard for this project). Mr. Watt was also the architect on the highly challenging 1890 Victoria Royce Presbyterian Church conversion to Victoria Lofts. The Church Lofts stands 3 storeys tall and encompasses 28 hard-loft units, with every original detail restored (at least, as much as possible!). The exterior façade rings Neo-Gothic, with aged brickwork & cement work and uniquely varying window shapes.The interior hard-loft units offered begin with the smallest 1 bedrooms (612 square feet) and scale up to 2 bedrooms (1482 square feet). Some of the exciting features that homebuyers can expect to see in-unit are single & multi-leveled layouts, restored stained glass windows, steel trusses, original brickwork exposed, vaulted & cornice ceilings, restored wooden doors, hardwood flooring, period light fixtures, skylight additions, private balconies, modern bathroom & kitchens, open concept layouts and modern staircases.Homebuyers have a common-shared multi-purpose room for events or entertaining guests and a parking garage. Onsite, FirstService Residential is on hand to oversee the day to day operations of this loft residence and to attend to the needs of its residents. It is no surprise when homebuyers check out the historical average PSF and see that it possesses a fantastic track record for the potential for a positive return on investment!Hugged by the street borders of Hepbourne Street, Delaware Avenue, Dovercourt Road and Bloor Street West, The Church Lofts (701 Dovercourt Road) has a premium location!
