A complete transformation and re-imagination with $$$ spent creating this one-of-a-kind, approximately 2,700 sq. ft. residence at the iconic i-Zone Lofts. Step inside a space that feels more like a private urban home than a conventional condo, where authentic industrial architecture, impressive scale and thoughtful contemporary design come together beautifully. Every detail has been carefully considered. Soaring wood-clad ceilings, exposed brick, steel beams and polished concrete floors preserve the loft's unmistakable character, while the extensive renovation delivers a polished and highly considered finish throughout. Made for entertaining, the expansive open layout flows effortlessly between cooking, dining and hosting. The dramatic kitchen sits at the centre of it all, featuring extensive matte-black cabinetry, a professional-style gas range and an oversized island that naturally becomes the gathering place. A comprehensive integrated lighting system sets the mood, while oversized windows and multiple skylights fill the home with natural light. Overlooking the main level, the mezzanine primary bedroom features seamless microcement flooring and smart-glass technology, offering privacy at the flick of a switch. Extensive wardrobe storage leads to a skylit ensuite, where the flooring continues alongside a frameless walk-in shower, floating vanity and matte-black fixtures. A flexible office or additional bedroom, in-suite laundry, custom storage and a statement bathroom with emerald tile and a freestanding clawfoot tub complete the interior. With mixed-use flexibility and commercial zoning, this rare live/work offering is ideally suited to creatives, artists, designers, entrepreneurs and professionals seeking an inspiring space in which to live, work and entertain. Located in the heart of Leslieville, moments from neighbourhood restaurants, cafés, shops, groceries, nearby TTC and more.

How this lease stacks up against the local rental market
Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?

· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Above Market Rent
At $7,500/mo, this is asking above the typical 3-bedroom rent of ~$3,500/mo in Leslieville. That premium needs to be justified — newer finishes, included parking, a premium location, or utilities included. I'll help you assess whether it's worth it or whether there's room to negotiate.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Leslieville's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. We'll want to verify the monthly fees and what they include.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
About South Riverdale
I know South Riverdale well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
