|
 |
 |
| Converted in 2005 and subsequently customized, this space is one of 4 units in a small-sized, elevator building with high owner-occupancy. |
|
|
 |
 |
| 11 foot-high ceilings and oversized windows, front + back, lend this floor-thru loft an exaggerated sense of space + light. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The main space readily accommodates multiple living areas for dining, reading, listening to music, watching TV or simply relaxing. |
|
|
 |
 |
| A modern, custom-designed kitchen is open to the main living space. |
|
|
 |
 |
| A unique palette of materials, including wood, concrete + glass, creates a kitchen workspace as beautiful as it is functional. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Maple wood Europly has been employed to integrate both cabinetry and appliances into a uniform design theme. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The kitchen build-out also includes high-end appliances + fixtures including, Jenn Air, Franke and Dorn Bracht. |
|
|
 |
 |
| A glass panel backsplash complements the clean lines of the kitchen counters. |
|
|
 |
 |
| All counter + center island surfaces have been finished with polished concrete. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Whether it's cocktail hour or breakfast the next morning, the kitchen + adjoining dining area are a natural focal point when entertaining at home. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Integrated into the wall of storage cabinets, extending from the kitchen, is a custom-built Murphy bed. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Simply move the dining table aside and pull down the queen-size Murphy bed... perfect for visiting friends + guests. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Situated in the connecting hallway, between the main space and the bedroom suite, is a built-in 'home office' counter, complete with open shelving and upper storage cabinets. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Looking down the connecting hallway towards the bedroom suite. |
|
|
 |
 |
| A custom-built, translucent slider/wall panel can be closed, providing privacy for the bedroom suite. |
|
|
 |
 |
The bedroom area is large enough to accommodate alternative sitting + entertainment areas.

 |
| Within the closet is a washer/dryer hook-up for a full-size electric stackable unit and plenty of open shelving for linen. |
|
|
 |
 |
| With the privacy slider/wall panel open, the design of the space provides a clear sight-line from the bedroom to the front of the loft. |
|
|
 |
 |

 |
 |
| Floor-to-ceiling wood panels open + close to reveal alternative means of egress to the unit and additional storage spaces within the loft. |
|
|
 |
 |
| With the panels closed and concealing both the elevator + stairwell access, the loft transforms into a sealed sanctuary from the pell-mell of modern urban life. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Slide the panel open and the private elevator access to the loft is revealed. |
|
|
 |
