CANDEREL STONERIDGE

Canderel Stoneridge has developed nearly a dozen buildings in the Toronto area, including the Massey Harris Lofts at 915 King St. W. in the King West neighbourhood. 

MASSEY HARRIS LOFTS

A classic red-brick mid-rise, the homes of Massey Harris Lofts offer residents a lot of living space in a vibrant area. These homes were developed in 2003 by Canderel Stoneridge. Residents looking for the unique feel of hard lofts must see what the homes at Massey Harris Lofts have to offer. 

Massey Harris Lofts mid-rise is only five-storeys tall, and inside there are 46 units for rent or sale. Loft sizes range from 488 square feet to 1,100 square feet and come in a variety of layouts. Choose from a pure loft with no bedrooms, or opt for a one-bedroom unit with a den. 

This building was the original 1883 building that housed Massey Harris Company, a company that manufactured tools during Toronto’s booming industrial era. The conversion was done so that residents can still enjoy that industrial feel with many of the modern elements needed for Toronto living. Since these suites were converted from the original structure, there was only some malleability when it comes to loft layouts.

The historical charm is evident throughout all of the suites, but you can choose a suite that has more hard loft features than others. You can even choose a penthouse suite so that you can enjoy views from all sides of the building. Arched windows, reminiscent of the Revival and Georgian architectural style and the building’s heritage, are both within the building and within the suites. Bay windows line the bottom floor as well, a perfect spot for a reading nook. 

Inside you can expect classic vaulted ceilings, 13.5-foot ceilings, the exposed brick, of course, wood beams repurposed from the original structure, and large windows. The features of Massey Harris Lofts gives residents the best of both worlds—classical charm with modern interiors. 

With a home at Massey Harris Lofts, you will be continually inspired.
