Darwin / Palermo Hollywood
Located in the trendy and vibrant Palermo Viejo neighborhood, this luxurious loft space is only blocks away from some of Buenos Aires' top restaurants and shopping spots, and is surrounded by inviting, quiet tree-lined streets. The loft is part of the Lofts de Darwin complex, a 100 + year old textile factory that was fully recycled approximately 10 years ago for Casa FOA, the renowned Argentine annual design fair. It is now a landmark in the city, coveted by architects, designers, and photographers alike.
This spectacular 300 square meter (3230 square feet) loft, with its 6 meter (20 feet) double height ceilings, 10 extra large windows (12 x 6 feet each) that let in lots of sunshine, and top of the line finishings are a one of a kind property in Buenos Aires that should not be missed! The property provides the feeling of a house, with the added comfort of an enclosed, 24-hour secured apartment building with an array of services including doorman and gym.
The loft has its own private entry-way off the building's landscaped stone tile central courtyard and has an additional service entrance for ease of access from its 2 covered parking spaces.
One enters the loft into its enormous, awe-inspiring reception and living room area that can both accommodate a quiet cozy evening with friends or family, as well as entertain a large group or party. Dinners can be held in the more formal dining room area, or in the eat-in kitchen (with a solid wood built-in table that comes with the loft, which seats 6-8 people). The kitchen, originally designed for Francis Mallman-- one of Argentina's most famous chefs-- also has top of the line stainless steel professional appliances. Next to the kitchen is a pantry, laundry and BBQ/ "parrilla" area. Additionally, the ground floor has a comfortable desk/ den/ working area, a guest bathroom/ closet, as well as a maid's room and bathroom accessible through the independent service entrance. An 8 square meter (86 square feet) basement, which one enters through the desk area, has optimal conditions and sizing to build a wine cellar!
In turn, the first floor boasts two main sectors, accessible through independent staircases: the main bedroom, en suite with its large bathroom and shower, 2-person jacuzzi tub and dressing room; as well as two additional bedrooms and a playroom (or fourth bedroom) that balconies over the desk area downstairs, all sharing another full bathroom. All of the upstairs rooms are also generously sized and have great sunshine throughout the day through the large floor to ceiling windows. A fifth room can easily be built, adding approximately 15 square meters (160 square feet) of living space.
This loft tastefully combines stainless steel, glass and cement finishings with refined touches of locally sourced "incienso" hardwood.
The property's current owners have agreed to leave all of the kitchen furniture and large appliances (stainless steel oven/ range and stainless steel refrigerator), as well as all of the designer wall mounted lighting.
