Dave is a longtime reader of our blog and recently wrote us to share his absolutely incredible Montréal loft with us, that he had torn down to the studs and completely renovated in 2018. Unfortunately he now has to sell it but wanted to share it with us before he leaves. A bit of info about it: 15ft ceilings, exposed brisk, 2 gas fireplaces, 2+1 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, living space of 1760 sq ft and a mezzanine of 900 sq ft, private roof top terrace 21′ x 34′. Dane not included 😉
WOW!!!! I am totally smitten. This loft has EVERYTHING. Thank you Dave for sharing your home with us!
A few before photos to show you the extent of the work that was done…

In the event you are in the market for the loft of your dreams, here is the listing.

Muted, muddy tones (such as Farrow & Ball’s Mouse’s Back, the colour of my bedroom that I am obsessed with) and a carefully curated mix of scultutal furniture and accessories come together to create a serene yet stylish dwelling in a Kensington flat of designer Rui Ribeiro.

Jamie Ivey of Richmond, Virginia based interior designers Ivey Design Group has taken a neutral new build (albeit with huge windows taking in the expansive views of woodlands and pond) and created a colourful and welcoming contemporary home. Crisp white walls allow pops of colour to delight and draw you into rooms while layering of textures warms what could have been a cold modern house. Think sophisticated yet family friendly, unique and definitely not boring.

This Tribeca loft is everything I could want in the industrial loft I’ve been dreaming about for a quarter of a century. Exposed brick and sprinkler pipes, archways, decorative tin ceilings are juxtaposed with elegant and refined furnishings and built-ins that add a luxurious feel. The result is dramatic and polished but very cozy. Designed by Studio DB. Photography by Matthew Williams.

What an absolutely beautiful example of blending a home in with the landscape. In this case it’s a home of traditional Mallorcan architecture made of local sandstone, with the Serra de Tramontana mountains in the background. The home’s structures form a courtyard that houses a pool surrounded by more stone. Hats off to Twobo architecture for creating this masterpiece.
