Volta Lofts
Overview
Developed in 2014, Volta Lofts is a new comer to the scene of Toronto condos. It’s located on Annette Street between Windermere and Runnymede Road, with retail space on the ground floor and terraced balconies that overlook the tree-filled neighbourhood.
Standing at just five-storeys and offering only 19 West End condos for sale and for rent, Volta Lofts is considered a boutique residence. The suites are designed as soft lofts, which means you get all the space and lighting that is expected of ‘traditional lofts’ with contemporary styled features and finishes. Ranging from one-bedroom to two-bedrooms plus den, the units have nine-foot ceilings, open kitchens with breakfast bars and stainless steel appliances, as well as designer bathrooms, and spacious terraces. A fine place for professionals and new families, it’s a boutique home in a quiet but up-and-coming locale.
Noted for its bakeries and new emerging restaurants, Annette Street in Runnymede-Bloor West Village is a charming neighbourhood, just north of the Bloor Street subway and High Park.

About 588 Annette St, Toronto
With a soft loft at 588 Annette Street, residents will live just north of Toronto’s most well-known and popular green space, High Park. It’s a 400-acre outdoor recreational space with lots of open playing fields perfect for picnics and pick-up soccer, tennis and basketball courts, children’s playgrounds, natural walking trails, as well as education and cultural facilities and even a zoo. The surrounding neighbourhoods from Roncesvalles and the West End Junction to the Bloor West Village and Swansea are all largely residential with a growing community of cafes, restaurants, and boutique shops, not to mention some well-established neighbourhood classics such as Humber Cinema for an evening’s entertainment. Some nearby gems to check out include Westwood Grill Pan-Asian Cuisine for lovers of dim sum, The Works Gourmet Burger Bistro on Bloor Street, and The Beet Organic Café & Market for some delicious gluten-free wraps.
For your weekly grocery shopping, you can find many independent shops and markets along Bloor Street West, with larger supermarkets like Loblaws and FreshCo on Dundas Street West. There is also a fresh farm-to-table market just down the street.
With High Park just a short walk south, you’re probably in good supply of green space. But if you want to change things up, you can visit Ravina Gardens Park or Magwood Park along the Humber River.
An ideal neighbourhood to get around on foot, the nearby TTC at Runnymede Station can easily zip residents into downtown for work and for fun. And drivers can get onto the Gardiner Expressway via Keele Street and Parkside Drive.
