Step into a quiet corner-unit loft on the east facing side of the building, the where chic industrial character and expansive outdoor space rarely coexist. Exposed beams, polished concrete floors and a wood-burning fireplace anchor an open floor plan bathed in light from oversized windows and skylights overhead. Slide open the door to your private deck - built for long evenings outside - with ample room to dine and entertain. The chef's kitchen is a showstopper: a custom center island with additional sink and built-in bookshelf at the end, pretty blue glass tile backsplash, a gas range and black granite counters. Cherry cabinetry and preserved architectural details add warmth, while the Fisher and Paykel fridge, wine fridge and Bosch dishwasher bring it fully current. One bedroom now, with architectural plans in hand for a second-floor expansion - plus a built-in office and generous closet space. The oversized bathroom offers a skylight and a stone tiled walk-in shower.Additional highlights include central AC, in-unit laundry, one deeded parking space and a private basement storage room. Set in a professionally managed building with elevator and intercom - just minutes to shopping, dining, the Red Line at JFK/UMass, Route 93 and downtown Boston.
