Every now and again, we encounter a property that is truly magical, one that reminds us of just how beautiful home can be, and this penthouse apartment on Broadway is just one of those places. For one, its location is sublime–downtown and minutes from spots like Takashi, UMOCA, Eva, the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center as well as Pioneer and Washington Parks. Second, even though it's intimately connected to the city, it remains a decidedly intimate space.

Once inside, it feels as if you've stepped into a private sanctuary, because inside, there lies the most lovely of spaces--an atrium.

If all that isn't enough to convince you this is a rare gem, consider the amenities: a secured building, one deeded, underground, two car parking spot, in-unit washer or dryer hookups plus plenty of storage space.

And with its creamy white walls, fourteen foot tall ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows looking out onto Main Street, this is about as close to a New York City loft as it gets.

There are two generous bedrooms, two bathrooms and a home office. The en suite bath boasts a European shower and freestanding tub. That atrium (boy do I wish every home had an atrium) can be accessed both from the kitchen as well as via the owner's suite. Imagine mornings beginning with early tea and time meditating in your own private garden. I love how the exposed metal work juxtaposes with the elegant shelving system and classic millwork. The bamboo flooring adds an extra degree of warmth.

If living downtown in a space as private and cozy as this is important to you, then you’ve found what you’re looking for. Welcome to 35 West Broadway and welcome home.
