About This Home

As of October 2022

Experience a rich city lifestyle complimented with historic charm, chic style, & also a prime location within walking distance to Little Tokyo & The Arts District! Ideally situated in The Higgins Building, this penthouse loft with its own private rooftop provides unparalleled convenience, as well as a gated entry and on-site security. It also benefits from the Mills Act, which which helps preserve historic structures in LA, offering owners significant property tax savings. Surrounded by local landmarks and exciting attractions, the building is only moments away from Disney Concert Hall, Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Pershing Square, Grand Park, Los Angeles Times Building, Grand Central Market, Japanese American National Museum, and Crypto.com Arena. Transportation options are also abundant with Metro lines, gas stations, and nearby electric vehicle supercharger stations. Renovated to reflect posh modern vibes, the reimagined interior provides an elevated living experience with a seamless combination of contemporary updates and original character. Soaring 15' ceilings greet you upon entry to this top-floor, open-concept residence. Explore the Smart home to discover an organically flowing floorplan, tons of dazzling natural light, oversized windows, gorgeous original historic tilework, brand new modern light fixtures, and an expansive living area. Perfect for year-round gatherings and holiday get-togethers, the open concept layout encourages easy socialization, while the overall design of the home inspires memorable conversation. Adjoining the living area, the impeccably updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, freshly painted soft-close shaker cabinetry with new bronze hardware, quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, a dishwasher, an electric range/oven, a refrigerator, and a dining area. Entertain guests alfresco-style and take the whimsical spiral staircase to the private rooftop patio where breathtaking views await. With approximately 600 sqft and 360-degree views of all of Los Angeles, the rooftop beckons weekly gatherings. Host open-air movie nights, watch the local fireworks, bask in the romance of twinkling city lights, or simply gather guests for evening chardonnay and charcuterie boards while enjoying the sunset. After an evening out on the town or on your own rooftop patio, enjoy the relaxation that the spacious loft-style primary bedroom offers with its 8' ceilings and a sizable, newly remodeled walk-in closet. The downstairs den and adjacent family room also boast 8' ceilings, tons of natural light, and an additional closet storage.
