This single-floor industrial-modern loft showcases a striking open-plan layout defined by raw exposed concrete walls, polished concrete floors, and soaring ceilings with fully exposed ductwork and pendant lighting. The main living area is anchored by a generous sectional sofa arrangement around a gold drum coffee table atop a bold geometric rug, with a wall-mounted flat-screen TV and a sleek wood media console against the concrete feature wall. Floor-to-ceiling steel-framed windows and glass doors flood the space with abundant natural light and offer expansive urban skyline views, with direct access to an outdoor terrace. A dedicated lounge nook features a dramatic floor-to-ceiling wall of vinyl records housed in custom shelving, complemented by a warm cognac leather sofa and lush potted plants. A separate zone is accessed through elegant black steel-framed glass partition doors, revealing warm hardwood flooring, a large conference or dining table, and a connected kitchen area. The entryway features a structural concrete column alongside a glass-paneled door leading to the terrace. Throughout, the space blends industrial rawness with carefully curated furnishings, greenery, and warm accent tones to create a sophisticated yet welcoming ambiance.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
