 |
| Converted in 2005 and subsequently customized, this space is one of 4 units in a small-sized building with direct elevator access to each loft. |
|
|
|
 |
| The main living space features a pitched 15-foot ceiling that slopes down the length of the floor-through to a height of 10-feet towards the rear of the loft. |
|
|
|
 |
| A modern, custom-finished kitchen is open to the main living space, lending itself perfectly for entertaining at home. |
|
|
|
 |
| Among the custom finishes is a hand-built wine storage + display rack incorporated into the design of the extended counter/bar. |
|
|
|
 |
| Another element that defines the kitchen build-out is the wall of cabinets and drawers, plus open shelf storage systems for the adjoining home office area. |
|
|
|
 |
| Solid wood cabinetry integrates the stainless steel appliances and granite counters into a functional galley-style kitchen design. |
|
|
|
 |
The single-piece granite counter forms an extended work surface complete with a deep under-mount trough sink, a separate raised bar and bright task-lighting.
Stainless steel appliances include, inter alia, Jenn Air refrigerator, dishwasher, below counter GE microwave oven and a Kitchen Aid trash compactor. |
|
|
|
 |
| The other side of the galley kitchen features a Jenn Air convection oven + gas range with an externally vented, Tamburo under-cabinet hood by Zephyr. |

Located immediately opposite the kitchen/home office area is the loft's 2nd full bathroom for the convenience of visiting friends or guests.
The 2nd/guest bathroom features mosaic floor tiling, a tub/shower unit with subway-style tile tub surround and brushed-steel finished sliding glass doors. |
