Agents: Angela Balan, Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd., Brokerage

The Place: A two-bedroom hard loft on a quiet corner near Queen and Ossington.
Bragging Rights: Built as the Ideal Bread Company factory in 1919 and converted to the Argyle Lofts in 2007, this heritage building is full of charming details, like huge arched doorways where horse-drawn wagons once picked up loaves.
