On best block in the Pearl, here’s the Chown Pella 1 bdrm +loft that serves as the antidote to those lovely yet clinically slick condos that never quite feel or function like home. Character and clean lines pair with SoHo flair in this sunny, styled and dialed corner sanctuary surrounded by the food, art, and parks of the Pearl. Details original to this historic warehouse conversion include beamed ceilings (high), concrete and brick walls and banks of arched windows. Shifting from historic to state-of-the-art- make note of the 2022 kitchen renovation w/ new high-end appliances. You’ll want to claim the primary bathroom and walk-in-closet remodels were your own design genius- but then again, living w/ all that splendor and smart utility without having paid the construction premiums may be the better brag. Also consider the cost/comfort benefits of new high-end heat and a/c (2020) and new roof prepaid by seller. From its perch above the great room, the loft offers many use options: bedroom, office, media room, etc. And under the loft? The rarest of modern condo amenities- storage! plus a clever custom cat rest area. More praise on the topic of old meets new- the storied 1910 building has been significantly seismically retrofitted and sports a sizable, recently updated roof deck (big grill, fire pit, seating) and that (paid for) new roof. The next block over from the Chown Pella is a pedestrian block outdoor plaza (Food! Drink! Furniture!) while the blocks immediate to the building remain open to driving. Freeway access is a cinch yet the Chown block is insulated from traffic noise. Deeply loved for 17+ years by the same fastidious owners, this sweet home awaits the happy chapters to come.
