ONE OF MY FAVORITE PENTHOUSES IN ALL OF DOWNTOWN.

After 20 years of living downtown and selling real estate in the loft district, I’ve had the opportunity to see just about every penthouse in the neighborhood. And I can tell you, this is genuinely one of my favorites. It’s one of those rare layouts that simply gets everything right. The space feels expansive, the floor plan functions beautifully, and both bedrooms have windows and wonderful natural light — something that can be surprisingly difficult to find in downtown lofts.

Inside, you’ll find the authentic loft character that makes these spaces so special, including soaring concrete ceilings, exposed interior brick, a mix of concrete and wood flooring, a warm and cozy gas fireplace, and a beautifully appointed kitchen anchored by a large center island with custom-poured concrete countertops.

But what really sets this penthouse apart is the striking black iron staircase that leads to the upper level. After you make your way upstairs, the downtown skyline comes into view in the distance, creating an incredible sense of anticipation before you arrive at the expansive second living area. This generous space offers additional room to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the unique character of the loft, with extra bonus space and a wall of windows that fill the room with natural light.

And then there’s the truly private rooftop terrace. Accessible through a glass door off the upper living area, this is your own outdoor retreat in the heart of downtown. Enjoy partial views of the Gateway Arch and the distinctive rooftop of City Museum, along with a perspective of the city that makes downtown living so appealing.

The upper level also features a generously sized bedroom and a full bathroom with both a separate shower and a soaking tub. With bedrooms on both levels, each offering windows and natural light, you have the flexibility to choose which one works best as your primary suite.

Add in private garage parking, and you have a penthouse that delivers an exceptional combination of authentic loft character, thoughtful design, generous living space, and a private outdoor experience that is hard to find downtown.

Simply put, this is one spectacular penthouse for the money — and one I would put on my personal shortlist of favorite downtown lofts.

And if you haven't been downtown lately, there is a lot happening. The neighborhood continues to see renewed investment, new businesses, and exciting additions to the downtown experience. The just opened Washington Avenue Food Hall, the growing Entertainment District, and the continued energy surrounding our sporting venues, Peabody Opera House, Convention Center, Gateway Arch, and Ballpark Village are all contributing to the momentum. Downtown is evolving, and there are plenty of reasons to be excited about what comes next.

Come experience downtown living for yourself.
