2 - 8 Bartlett Avenue

A true hard loft. Built in 1907. Available now. Converted from a rope factory that operated on this quiet Dovercourt street since 1907, The Bartlett Lofts is one of the city's most authentic hard loft addresses. This two-bedroom plus den corner unit is one of only six in the entire building. Step inside and the architecture does the talking: 13-foot beamed ceilings, exposed brick and original post-and-beam construction throughout. This is the real thing. The open living and dining area is spacious and practical, anchored by a fireplace that adds warmth to what the century-old bones already bring. The kitchen is superb: well-appointed and functional, designed for people who actually cook. The split two-storey layout creates a natural separation between living and sleeping spaces. The den incl. a Murphy-bed adds genuine flexibility: home office, reading room, guest overflow - it earns its square footage. Two bedrooms, a full bath plus a half, in-suite laundry, and enough storage to actually live here comfortably. This isn't a showpiece you tolerate, it's a loft you settle into. Steps from Bloor, the subway, Dovercourt Park, Christie Pitts, Dufferin Grove, and some of the best independent food and coffee in the West End. Everything is close. Nothing is in your face. Hard loft purists know what this building is. If you've been waiting for a piece of Toronto's industrial history to surface, this is it. Voila. Street Parking Available.
