1101 A Street Unit: 806

VIEWS of Sound, Waterway and Mt Rainier from this unique Urban Loft in the historic Perkins Building. Penthouse level gives you 17' ceilings that the owner used to create a 2 story loft with personal view deck. You will love the mix of textures including the hanging wood table, steel beams, concrete and brick walls, glass floor and skylight. The spiral staircase takes you to the bedroom, laundry, studio level then on up to your deck with magnificent views. Kitchen has unique appliances and design. You'll love the shower and main level bath with the barn door. But the winch lift to the upper bookcases is one-of-a-kind (do not operate without listing agent). Additionally, there is a garage parking space on the lower level w/storage adjacent. The 'handy' buyer can create a wonderful edgy urban space very easily. The Perkins has a gym, gorgeous lobby and European-style atrium. This is the first poured concrete building West of the Mississippi & was built by the newspaper tycoon, Sydney Perkins. Last used as the UW Tacoma before conversion to residences. Live the Downtown lifestyle in 'style.' Near vibrant restaurants, museums, arts and entertainment. Easy access to the light rail and heavy rail up North. Additional parking available for a monthly fee at nearby buildings. This condo is a stunner...yes, it needs work but what a unique chance to own a piece of history. STRICTLY sold AS-IS, cash only. Furnishings are negotiable. Suspended table, of course, stays. It's a beauty.
