Feather Factory Lofts is a 6-storey loft conversion developed by Plaza in 2008. It's home to 44 units that reflect the authentic loft character typical of Toronto's converted industrial spaces. The building was designed to preserve the feel of its original use while providing modern residential functionality. Lofts in this building tend to feature open-plan layouts, high ceilings, and concrete or exposed brick details that appeal to buyers and renters seeking character and space efficiency. The building is managed by Dash Property Management and includes practical amenities like bicycle storage, which is valued in this neighbourhood where cycling and car-free living are common.

Feather Factory Lofts sits in Roncesvalles, one of Toronto's most established and accessible neighbourhoods. You're directly on or very near Roncesvalles Avenue, a pedestrian-friendly street lined with independent restaurants, coffee shops, bookstores, and galleries. The Dundas West streetcar stops nearby, providing quick access to downtown, Bathurst, and the University of Toronto area. The neighbourhood is known for its tree-lined residential streets and strong community culture. Walking is the primary way locals get around, and the area supports cycling with good bike infrastructure. Parks, schools, and local markets make this a family-friendly and self-sufficient community, distinct from the higher-rise condo districts further east.

Units here average around 600 square feet and typically feature 1 to 1.5 bedrooms, making them suitable for singles, couples, or small families. Loft living means open or semi-open floor plans, which maximizes perceived space but requires flexibility around bedroom separation. Current listings range from $515,000 to $939,000, reflecting variation in unit size and condition. When considering a unit, ask about maintenance fees, as loft buildings sometimes have higher fees due to shared mechanical systems and building upkeep. Inquire about pet policies, parking availability (crucial in this neighbourhood where street parking is competitive), and whether utilities are included or separately metered. The bicycle storage amenity is a practical bonus if you plan to use transit and cycling as your primary transportation methods.
