287 Macpherson Avenue, Toronto C02, ON

Description

Set within a post and beam Georgian-style industrial building originally constructed approximately 1930 as the head office of Purity Flour Mills, 287 Macpherson Avenue is a boutique office building shaped by heritage proportion, material presence, and architectural resonance, adapted for contemporary use. Suite 304 comprises a defined portion of the upper level, conceived as a self-contained studio environment organized around a sculptural spiral staircase and mezzanine. This space captures the most vertically expressive elements of the floor, offering a distinctive workspace defined by volume, light, and layered spatial experience across 2,143 square feet (approximately). The main level functions as an open plan working studio and office, grounded by exposed brick, custom wide-plank wood flooring, and a refined interplay between structure and light. Large industrial-scale south facing windows bring natural light into the space, while the staircase anchors the layout both functionally and visually. Above, the approximately 271 square foot mezzanine introduces a quieter counterpoint. Framed by the pitched roofline, exposed joists, and glazed skylights, this upper level is ideal for focused work, a private office, or an intimate meeting space, while remaining visually connected to the studio below. The result is a workspace that feels open yet deliberate, with a natural sense of flow between levels. This suite offers an intimate yet architecturally rich environment that's well suited to design-led practices, architecture and interiors firms, or principal-led offices seeking a studio that balances presence with privacy. The space functions as a complete working environment, where material, light, and proportion shape both daily use and client experience.
