DESCRIPTION:

Impressive West Berkeley live/work loft with stunning architectural features, tasteful appointments, and indoor/outdoor livability.

Designed by Remple + Lao Architects and built in 2004, 2709 Tenth Street’s metal clad exterior reflects the mixed-use, industrial character of its neighborhood, subtly concealing the architectural flare found within its walls. Once through the gate, one is greeted to a hallway of petinated panels followed by a canopy of lush bamboo. The building’s side-by-side townhome style layout, plus double-walls, allows for privacy between neighbors and enables each unit to maximize the light in its space. One parking space is located in the podium garage.

Unit D is a three-story, 1,495 square foot home with two bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, and a large elevated courtyard patio.

The first level provides live/work flexibility given its open layout, stained concrete floors, and sliding glass enclosed bedroom/office. Light pours in through large windows, a corner skylight, and the dramatic light well in the bedroom. Nelson bubble lamps hang in the bedroom and recessed lighting illuminates the remainder of the level. The unit entry features a custom made closet, desk, bench, and partitioning module. The half bathroom’s charming portal window looks out to the lush shoots of bamboo. The home is equipped with stacked modern front-loading washer/dryer concealed at the foot of the stairs on the main entry level.

The steel stairway and second level features beautifully rich hardwood floors. Designed with indoor/outdoor flexibility in mind, this central level is home to the kitchen, dining room, and elevated courtyard. Large floor-to-ceiling windows and a floating mezzanine wall wrap the open kitchen/dining room. The industrial aesthetic is carried over to the kitchen with dark granite countertops, and stainless cabinets, appliances, and fixtures. Appliances include refrigerator, gas range/oven, and dishwasher. The sun-drenched courtyard features beautiful redwood decking, perforated steel panels for privacy between neighbors, and a modern hot tub!

Master Suite Loft is located on the third level. Two large windows flood the room with light and provide a view of downtown Oakland, West Berkeley, and a bit of San Francisco and the Bay Bridge sunset. The full master bathroom is appointed with spa tile and custom vanity sink, mirror, and cabinet and don’t miss the great views of downtown from the full bathroom’s oval window. The room has a coved ceiling that flows over the mezzanine to the light well below.
