Chic & historical Downtown loft proudly representing a bygone era. This MILLS ACT property was originally built in 1899 - then thoughtfully renovated into 50 NY style live/work lofts in 2005. The DOUGLAS LOFTS were originally owned by a lumber baron turned real estate mogul, Thomas Douglas Stimson, who along with his family, restored many of the architectural details that adorn the property today. The heritage includes a grand entrance with ornate columns and a 20" high ceiling, a 2nd story skylight stretching to the roof, original marble treads and cast iron railings.Hundreds of double hung windows remain today with beauty and quality (a prize before air conditioning). The 710 Square ft loft with high ceilings allows for a flood of natural light. The unit lives like a much larger space! Enter through the old-school front door and enjoy the dark hardwood floors and period tile. Preserved double-hung windows with gorgeous hardware frame the North facing views. The Poggenpohl kitchen has modern tones, full-size appliances and offers plenty of room for your cooking delights. The spacious living room is adjoined by a dining area creating a comfortable atmosphere. A double-sided handcrafted wooden shelving unit acts as separation between the living room and bedroom: Containing a TV that swivels to the living room and bedroom, storage cabinets and open shelves for your displayable treasures. The bedroom is private and has a large wall-to-wall closet. Subway-tiled bathroom with full size tub /shower combo, built-in cabinets and a huge countertop. In-unit stacked laundry closet and Central AC/Heat. HOA fees include security from 3p-7a daily, water and trash.Inquire with LA1 about parking details.
