Description



7L has been totally transformed to maximize the most in space and functionality. The ceiling has been raised and the wall separating the kitchen from the living/ dining area has been removed. The overall feel is that of a much brighter and spacious loft.

The higher ceiling in the kitchen has allowed for double stacked overhead cabinets so the storage capacity has been more than doubled. The prospective from the foyer is no longer obstructed so oversized windows are on full display and light is more evenly distributed throughout. All doors are custom made and are significantly taller which accentuates the ceiling height.

In the evening the loft appears even more dramatic as elegant, dark-brown oak floors are highlighted by a well considered lighting plan. Window treatments are motorized and there is significant closet space which was added during the renovation.
