Small Space House Tour: 450 Square Foot Hard Loft With Exposed Brick and Wood Ceiling

Ever dream of living in small space with character? This hard loft in the west-end of downtown Toronto is small but filled with history and architectural interest. Formerly a toy factory, this boutique building has kept it's original flooring, windows, brick walls and ceilings. A built-in lofted bed was added to maximize space and create room for a small home office.

Toronto with the hard T, cryin

[@mariykaauber1743]

So nice for an interior design video to admit that it's a part-time space--so many times I watch videos where the space could clearly only work as an AirBnB or part-time stay, but they pitch it like it's the client's whole way of life!

[@designanddoctor]

I think House & Home should have the clients speak at the end… it’ll be so good to see how much they love their new space

[@reneesmith695]

Lovely, would have liked to have seen the bathroom though.

[@ove5822]

I Iike House&home! So fun.

[@vickimaiorano5763]

What a great little space. I think I would have put the bed under the office. Safer after a night out and a few drinks 😁

[@fransirahome]

Beautiful exposed bricks, love that unique bedroom upstairs the work place.

[@amybeatty5526]

Please show more smaller space remodels!

[@Agentxile]

Cute, but I wanted to see more of the space including the closet and foyer.

[@darwinmcquerter7463]

Beautifully done!

[@djieKraf]

Thank you for sharing,
your video is very good,
I love it. Nice to meet you.
Wish you happiness and success in life

[@littledotti]

lovely home. Love it.

I'd ditch the kitchen table, using a counter height table w/stools since I do cook. Replace the chairs under the bed loft with ones on castors so I could slide out before standing; then move right in!

[@shigemorif1066]

Beautiful! Love the warmth of the wood and how it blends well with the existing brick. I can’t afford a pied-à-terre, but if I could this would be wonderful.

Hello, everyone, it was mentioned that there is no dishwasher in the apartment and that was presented as a negative or missing amenity you would have in a condo. So my question is....Should a single person living in a small space have a dishwasher in the first place? Does it have value with respect to its usage? Thanks.

[@vickimaiorano5763]

Agree don’t really need a dishwasher for a plate and glass after Uber eats. I was wondering about the size of the fridge too. Personally I would have just had a bar type fridge for the milk, wine, butter etc.

[@charlotteziggy8353]

I never used my dishwasher. I prefer doing my dishes by hand.
Never understood the popularity of dishwashers.

[@debbieaugustt-moffatt4642]

@@charlotteziggy8353 Agreed!

[@Person-mh6xq]

@@vickimaiorano5763 disagree. A college-size fridge and no dishwasher makes a really poor kitchen. Got to maintain some integrity for a kitchen or it will look like a child’s play space.

[@michaelmode]

Terrific!

[@marian1633]

There could easily be a bigger dining table in that space

[@maddscientist3170]

great design...needs a rail for the stairs tho......

[@TomJones-wi4nh]

First thing I thought of when I saw those

[@comealongcomealong4480]

@Madd Scientist I would love to have seen a European design the interior for this former factory space, now condo. For me, this 45m² space was good but not great - in terms of the how to use the dwelling (ie eat, work, entertain, relax, bathe, sleep, storage). I think more creative design solutions would have enhanced living in this condo.

[@Dosesofwhite]

loveeeeeee

[@kimsonne5462]

I love it except for the size of the rug 🙄

[@pbear49]

Nice Job. I probably would have did something with the Fridge and wash machine they stick out like a sore thumb. As far as the dishwasher issue. you could have easily tucked in a drawer dishwasher. I would have reconfigured the kitchen a little better. Someone mentioned a island, that would work.

[@julietphillips1991]

For young couple and also not so young couple.

[@starlingstudios5905]

Which building is this??

[@houseandhome]

24 Noble Street, Toronto.

[@fayethompson4057]

Why didn’t they show the bedroom and bath! What a jip!☹️

[@houseandhome]

The bedroom is the lofted bed.

[@robyndismon394]

Completely underwhelmed.

[@victorsaucedo8306]

It's not functional.

[@maddscientist3170]

it's a glorified hotel room for the individual who designed it

[@ricphoenix4578]

Hi why do you suggest its not functional? 👍

[@gregg3533]

The first minute + of your video is entirely irrelevant "feels good" information. We're here to see the space. Thank you.

[@sandramalone3522]

Ugly space. No warmth, no soul.
