    What's special

    3D Tour: bit.ly/Douglas-3A Freshly painted corner home with only one shared wall with multiple views of direction and an abundance of natural light. The home features original exposed brickwork, beautifully restored double-hung windows, elevated ceilings, and rich Douglas Fir flooring throughout. Off to the side enjoy a large inviting den space ideal for a formal dining room or the ultimate work station. The kitchen showcases Poggenpohl kitchen cabinets, timeless Bosch stainless-steel appliances, sought after gas cooktop, and room for an additional kitchen island. The fully enclosed bedroom offers Western views of the Downtown LA city skyline and a front row view of the magnificent "Pope of Broadway" mural. Included with the home is (1) underground assigned parking space and newer LG front loading washer and dryer. The Douglas Building, a five-story Classical Revival period masterpiece, is one of the few remaining examples of the 1800's commercial architecture still in existence in Downtown Los Angeles. Thanks to this building's historical relevance, homeowners are rewarded with a significant property tax savings through the Mills Act program. Most homeowners save upwards to 70% off their property taxes and these savings are grandfathered to every subsequent owner as well! The building is conveniently located next to Grand Central Market, brand new Metro Station, and several highly acclaimed destinations including The Last Bookstore, The Broad, and Walt Disney Concert Hall to name a few.
