Richmond Mews
287 Richmond St E, Toronto
A simple, yet quaint Old World structure, Richmond Mews sits at three-storeys on the south side of Richmond Street near Sherbourne Street. Originally an instrument factory, the warehouse was converted in 1997 into 15 boutique Toronto lofts with suites ranging from one-bedroom layouts with walkout patios to two-storey lofts with two-bedrooms and spacious rooftop terraces. All units have open-concept living areas, 11-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, modern appliances, and bright warehouse-style windows. With limited amenities apart from building security, living at Richmond Mews means saving a bit of money on maintenance fees. A great space for those desiring a live-work lifestyle, the space lends wells to both an at-home studio as well as a great place to entertain family and friends. A great location means a short walk to The Distillery District to the east, Queen Street's live music scene, the Eaton Centre and of course the St. Lawrence Farmers’ Market. A few local hot spots to check out include Mengrai Gourmet Thai on Ontario Street for a comfortable brickwork setting of Northern Thai food, Carbon Bar on Queen Street, and Petit Dejeuner on King Street East for a delicious Belgian style brunch. There are also many parks in the area, such as St. James Park and David Crombie Park. If you want a night out, you can enjoy a film at the quaint Rainbow Cinemas, or at the Alumnae Theatre Company.
