A stylish, unique, two-story, loft-condominium with much exposed brick in Jacksonville’s historic Riverside. Impressive, 28-foot-high ceilings stretching from the living room to loft bedroom accentuate the architectural, gallery-like feel to this special unit first built in 1923. Many in-set alcoves for displaying art in this elegant unit with a split floorplan, beautifully renovated with high-end touches, upscale lighting, and sophisticated ceiling fans. The kitchen renovation added tasteful, custom-made open-shelving; a backsplash of artisanal Italian teal tiling; and all Fisher-Paykel appliances. An attractive, flexible alcove near the kitchen makes a great reception area or office space or formal dining room.
Unique elements abound. Floor-to-ceiling book shelving in the front bedroom (or study); and a charming, long space with shelving and bright lighting, currently a library & reading room. The property is being sold ”As Is”. Premium lighting is everywhere with dimmable fixtures embedded in the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, and track-lighting in the bedroom/study and alcove/entertainment areas. Two generous bedrooms: each with a very large, full bathroom (one tub, one shower), and ample storage. The exquisite walk-in closet in the master/ground bedroom, with an array of drawers and shelves, enables superb organization.

The unit’s exclusive entrance passes through a private, extra-large, outdoor space in stone with historic features; it is perfect for entertaining and gardening. This vast terrace is steps from the Gorrie gardens, the parking lot, and a gate heading outside by foot for shopping or river walks. A second entrance leaves the unit into the old school building for waste disposal, mail pick-up, and common spaces (library and courtyard). The fitness center entry faces the unit. Two assigned parking spaces include the complex’s nearest (ultra convenient for unloading!). Best of all, the unit is very quiet, and Riverside’s best coffee and bicycle shops are just two minutes away.
