I’ve been fascinated by hidden spaces since well before my time selling real estate – and this absolute gem utterly amazed me.  Rumoured to have originally served as a local flour mill when Little Italy had a multitude of bakeries, this building eventually became a woodworking shop, before falling into complete disrepair.  Well, it’s forgotten no longer – thanks to a comprehensive and utterly stylish re-invention by the current owners.  Thanks for saving it, gents, it’s a neighbourhood treasure.
