Rare opportunity to rent in the architecturally significant live/work Alta Lofts; designed in 1925 by Mayan & Wiltern Theaters architects for Fuller Paint Company. In 2007, Pugh +Scarpa redesigned this historic industrial building by weaving modern comforts into this urban living warehouse. Giant Birds of Paradise welcome you home in the beautifully landscaped six-story courtyard, complete with a stunning Art Deco lobby and a shared seating lounge area; great for working on your computer or reading a book in this peaceful open setting. The parking for this unit is on the 2nd floor, so you can enter your unit directly without getting into the elevator! This sophisticated 2nd-floor modern loft features high ceilings and a wall of double pane windows that allow natural light to roll into this creative space. Recently installed wood floors throughout with designer lighting filling the space with warmth. The kitchen has granite counters, stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, and stainless-steel island! When you enter, there are modern rustic lights, wood hall cabinets with floating shelves, and a stylish solid wood barn door that leads into a spacious walk-thru closet with an Elfa customizable shelf system and a smart laundry appliance set. The bathroom has been sophistically remodeled with a large, secluded shower, designer sink and mirror. The unit has exposed concrete pillars, coupled with the original pivot steel windows and custom blinds provide a true loft feeling. The pet-friendly building has low HOA dues covering water, gas, trash, a gym, a BBQ area, a furnished recreation room, and bike storage. Each unit is constructed of concrete, so neighbor noise is virtually nonexistent, but at the same time you feel like a part of this thriving community. The LA River Bike path to Elysian Park or LA State Historic Park are close by, and immediate surroundings include Flat Top, Frog Town, Dodger Stadium, Chinatown, and Lincoln/Cypress Gold Line Station. Quick access to the 5/110 freeways and a short stroll to the Blue Line station, make this a perfect home to escape the rush of the city while still being front and center of it all. Unit is currently unfurnished.
