Get ready for something refreshingly different. Residence #301 in SOHO Lofts. Pass the boutique shops along Locust Street in the East Village and slip through the breezeway between All Spice and Salon Spa W into SOHO's central courtyard: custom art, murals, patios, and gathering spaces built for the SOHO community to hang, gather and entertain. Once inside residence 301, the chill vibe continues. This 1-bed, 1-bath top-floor loft is a sanctuary where modern refinement meets the history, charm, and walkability of one of Des Moines' most vibrant neighborhoods. Every detail has been thoughtfully reimagined for elevated, maintenance-free living: 10' ceilings, large windows, contemporary lighting, and luxury vinyl plank floors throughout. Layout modifications created a larger, more functional kitchen - an entertainer's dream with sleek flat-front cabinetry, an island with built-in dining table, custom tile backsplash, quartz countertops, and premium Bespoke appliances. The bath features upgraded fixtures and designer tile for a spa-like feel. Includes a dedicated underground parking spot. Rentals permitted; pets allowed (weight restrictions apply). HOA covers cable, internet, insurance, snow removal, water, trash, security, and exterior/building maintenance. HOA special assessment loan has just 6 years remaining dues expected to drop to $400/month once paid off. Plug in to the action of downtown or chill out at home. Residence #301 at SOHO Loft delivers an unrivaled lifestyle.
