41 Shanly Lofts: Toronto’s Original Loft Conversion Comes Alive

Tucked away in the heart of the energetic Dovercourt-Wallace Emerson area, 41 Shanly stands as a testament to Toronto’s first-ever loft conversion.

Lofty Dreams Meet Concrete Reality

The lofts at 41 Shanly mix the old-school charm of exposed brick and wooden beams with the modern must-haves like skylights and open floor plans. Think big with spaces ranging from 800 to 1,800 square feet, where the city’s history meets your personal style. These aren’t just homes; they’re canvases for your lifestyle, complete with private garages and low-key maintenance fees.

Live, Work, Play—All in Your Neighborhood

At 41 Shanly, life outside your loft is as vibrant as the life you build inside it. Kick off your mornings with a craft coffee from the local café, snag lunch at the trendiest pizzeria around, and fill your fridge from the nearby Food Basics. Need a workout or a swim?
