Lights, camera, move in! Housed in a former movie theatre, this loft is ready for its next leading tenant.
Steps from Toronto’s vibrant Little Italy neighbourhood, Unit 103 in The Movie House Lofts is a charming space showcasing its heritage roots, while embracing a modern flair. Located at at 394 Euclid Avenue and listed for $1,025,000, the (more than) 1,200-sq.-ft loft is within a century old red-brick building, once a Protestant fraternal clubhouse and, as mentioned, theatre.
Spread over three floors, the unit is a 1+1 bedroom with two baths. It’s ideal for the young entrepreneur looking to live in an iconic Toronto neighbourhood close to the downtown core or a creative who wants to be inspired.

The open-concept space features soaring ceilings with wall space perfect for displaying art. With a dramatic floor-to-ceiling arched warehouse-styled window, an abundance of natural light floods the ground level making it a scene stealer. Sightlines into every room on the main floor makes the space the heart of the unit and spot to entertain guests.
A set of double-windowed doors opens the room to a quaint streetside garden patio. It’s an urban retreat that is close to the hustle of College Street, while still providing an oasis-like escape.
In the kitchen, the backsplash draws the eye with its warm hues of copper, brown, and gold tones. Its open shelving allows you to curate dishware like a gallery — if you feel so inclined.
Our Favourite Thing
It's in an unbeatable location. Steps away from Toronto’s Little Italy neighbourhood, you’ll have the bragging rights of living in the dynamic area and in a piece of its history, to boot. Plus, you’re within walking distance of other popular enclaves like Kensington Market, the Annex and the soon-to-be reopened Mirvish Village.
Up the stairs is the airy primary bedroom that floats above the living space. The cozy room fits a queen-sized bed and features a built-in dark-coloured wardrobe. The room is level with the top of the unit’s large window, allowing the rising sun to naturally wake you as it pours into the space at dawn. Across the hall is an ensuite that can be private or used by guests. (But we suggest keeping this one to yourself and directing visitors to the second full bathroom in the basement.)
The bottom floor is adaptable to whatever your needs happen to be. Its current set up is an office/study area and recreation room with a couch and TV. The space has the potential of being reimagined into a games room, home gym, library, or a creative studio. It has ample storage with a nook under the staircase and in the laundry room next to the washer and dryer.
The area itself has endless options of restaurants, cafes, boutique stores, and bars. The Movie House Lofts is also home to Cafe Belém (not Italian, we know), which serves coffee and traditional Portuguese pastries like the Pastel de Nata. It’s also walkable and transit friendly, with two streetcar lines nearby and Bathurst subway station only a 15-minute stroll away, through a neighbourhood with historic mansions.
