This remarkable loft combines three levels of vertical living space within a modern contemporary design.

|
|
 |
| The lower level is divided into two separate entertainment spaces that readily accommodate multiple living areas for dining, reading, listening to music, watching TV or simply relaxing. |
|
|
|
 |
| The interior lines and clean finish accentuate the contemporary feel of the space. |
|
