 |
| Live, work + play in this artfully designed 2BR/1˝BA Leather District loft. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
| 11˝ foot-high ceilings and the open floor plan add to this loft's sense of space + light. |
|
|
 |
 |
| A unique materials palette, including wood, stone + glass, decorates interior partitioning walls within the loft. |
|
|
 |
 |
| One such partitioning wall separates a home office from the main living space. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Alternatively, the home office could serve as a possible 3rd bedroom or private study. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The midday sun bounces along the rooftops of the historic buildings along South Street. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Looking up South Street across the Rose Kennedy Greenway to the Financial District beyond. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The main space easily accommodates multiple living areas for sleeping, dining, reading, watching TV or just simply relaxing. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Hardwood floors have been stained, polished and preserved throughout. |
|
|
 |
 |
Central heating and air conditioning are ducted throughout the loft.
Additional ventilation is provided by a twin-rotor ceiling fan. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Custom-built framing and casework delineate the kitchen/dining area without closing it off from the main space. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Three fixed barstools at the kitchen pass-through plus the custom wall paneling give the kitchen/dining area all the charm of your local diner. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The kitchen build-out features plenty of glass-faced overhead cabinets, a kitchen counter with diamond cut stainless steel backsplash. |
|
|
 |
 |
A heavy duty Wolf integrated oven/range with griddle + broiler module complements the Sub-Zero refrigerator.
Other appliances include a dishwasher + disposal and a microwave oven. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The kitchen pass-through opens to the dinning area and allows natural light to filter through to the kitchen workspace. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Adjoining the dining area is the entrance to the 1st-of-2 sleeping areas. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Wall-to-wall carpeting lends a quality of warmth and comfort to both sleeping areas. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The main sleeping area is large enough to accommodate a king-size bed with side tables. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Twin folding doors open to reveal a storage closet with custom closet built-ins. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The centerpiece of the main sleeping area is the decorative picture window with sitting banquet. |
|
|
 |
 |
The picture window is flanked by two louvered windows, whose glass slats can be tilted open for greater airflow.
A short hallway between both sleeping areas provides access to a full bathroom. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The full bathroom features granite flooring, a tub/shower unit with tiled tub surround, pedestal sink and vanity mirrors with bright task lighting. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The bathroom also houses a custom-built laundry hamper and linen closet. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The bathroom can be accessed via a 2nd door opening from the 2nd/guest sleeping area. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The 2nd/guest sleeping area currently doubles as the loft's TV room. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The 2nd/guest sleeping room also features custom-built casework and a large storage closet. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Picture windows set into the partitioning wall allow natural light to flow through into the 2nd/guest sleeping area. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The concrete wrapped columns and the painted brick + beams lend industrial charm to the unique design of the space. |
|
|
 |
 |
| The loft has been sound-proofed with noise mitigating insulation and sheetrock between the beams. |
|
|
 |
 |
| 10 deep-cut windows band this loft's corner exposure filling the space with natural light. |
|
|
 |
 |
| Adjacent to the entrance of the loft is a coat closet and a half-bathroom, for the convenience of friends + guests. |
|
|
 |
 |
Ceci n'est pas une toilette.
