The first thing you notice when you enter this remarkable loft home in the Itasca Building is the blend of drama and intimacy; the interplay of natural light and modern design with the historic elements of timber and brick. The next thing you notice is the natural flow of space, from public to private, as a result of the sensitive redesign of the interior in 2010. Preserving the unique fireplace, skylights, and teak-fronted cabinetry from the original design, the current owners created a truly unique interior that is functional and delightful. The expansive kitchen, living, and dining areas are balanced by intimate lofted spaces for home office, reading and relaxing. And the quiet North Loop location, adjacent to the West River Parkway, offers the best of city living. Stroll along the river to dinner and a show at the Guthrie, watch eagles and herons soar over the Mississippi, or just relax in the lovely private back yard. Life is good.
