The Space:
There is also a smaller desk area that provides a great laptop work area. There is a 55" 4K Smart TV located in the living area on the first level. There is a washer and dryer in the unit with enough detergent for a few loads. The unit features a custom designed pegboard system that allows longer term guests to change their storage space as their creativity and needs change. There are concrete floors on the first level with a painted wood floor in the loft reminiscent of the painted front porches of the homes in the local historic neighborhoods. There are custom designed metal and Polgal slider closet doors. Polgal, commonly known as 'green house material', provides a semi opaque cover and when back lit creates a unique glow...these are a modern take on traditional Japanese slider doors and lanterns. Kitchen counter tops are a restaurant style stainless steel with a unique marine edge that keeps food prep and spills from running off the surface. The darker counter surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom are 'paper stone', a unique recycled paper product that is impervious to water. The building was newly constructed and finished in the Spring of 2020 by award winning developer and neighborhood resident Christian Chernock. Christian is known for creating highly unique boutique style apartments and homes that depart from what is typically seen in apartment living. His spaces are highly sought after and are an inspiring experience to see.
