This penthouse is the crown jewel of the Abbey Lofts, a former Howard Park Methodist church, built in 1910 in Toronto, Canada.

The 2,700-square-foot four-story penthouse sits inside the bell tower of the church and features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a media room and a 550 square-foot roof terrace.
