Rental of the Week: $5,000 per month to live in a spacious converted loft on Queen Street East

Address: 98 Queen Street East, Unit 100 Neighbourhood: Moss Park Agent: Robert Spindler, Re/Max Hallmark Realty Ltd., Brokerage Price: $4,950 per month

The place

A large, modern second-storey flat in a Victorian building. The spacious layout leaves plenty of room for entertaining.

The history

The 150-year-old building was converted into three lofts in 1999. The owner, who bought this unit in 2009, put in new insulation and redid the walk-in closet and master ensuite. He travels a lot and wants to rent out the property while he’s away.

The living room’s windows face Queen Street:

Major perks

The elevator opens directly into the unit, so the tenant won’t have to worry about any hallway-related hassles.

Possible deal breaker

Although the loft is large, there’s only one bedroom, so any family larger than two people will have trouble sharing the place.

By the numbers

• $4,950 per month • 2,044 square feet • 10-foot ceilings • 2 bathrooms • 1 bedroom • 1 balcony • 1 parking spot • 1 walk-in closet • 1 locker
