First Floor Farmers Market Loft Features Fabulous Live-Work Floor Plan
Share News:
The historic loft building at 2220 Canton is one of those keystone Farmers Market buildings that’s almost immediately recognizable as you drive toward the center of Downtown Dallas. Just past Good Latimer and near enough to Chavez that you’ll never really go hungry, this building is perfectly situated for those who want to be close to Deep Ellum and within shouting distance of the Central Business District.
It’s truly one of our favorite loft buildings, but we have yet to take a closer look at it from a ground-level perspective. Until today!
Unit 102 inside 2220 Canton just went on the market, and this beautiful loft has a spacious floor plan that is perfect for someone looking for a live/work space in a walkable neighborhood within a great building with stellar amenities.
Marketed by Realtor Brandon Martin, this 2,400-plus-square foot loft inside the historic 1925-built industrial structure is the perfect combination of openness and privacy. There are two bedrooms and two full baths — a rarity in lofts — and it’s on the market for $435,000. HOA fees are spendy, though, at $907 monthly. Dues include blanket insurance, management, partial use of facilities, reserves (important for historic properties, especially ones that are close to 100 years old), trash, water and sewer.
I love the high ceilings and open floor plan that really shows off the polished concrete floors and multi-level design scheme. The windows, of course, are incredible. Now, as you’ve already noticed, you won’t get any skyline views from these huge banks of glass, but you do get a good streetscape and plenty of foliage.
The kitchen, which features tons of cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a large breakfast bar, cool contemporary pendant fixtures, and a beautiful tile floor is just perfect for those who want a functional space for their culinary creations. And with the Farmers Market just down the street, you’ll be shopping some of the freshest produce for your fare.
As you can see, the bathrooms in this unit have been recently updated with very trendy materials. Larger rectangular tile, a deep jetted tub, a frameless glass divide, and a contemporary marble-topped vanity. The fixtures are perfect, too, and the layout makes the most of the space.
Now, this could very well be a great studio or office. The corner window scheme lets in tons of light, and there’s a free-standing closet for storage. It offers just enough privacy to keep you from waking up your partner should you need to make a late night conference call in a far-off time zone. If inspiration hits at 2 a.m., the brightness from your laptop monitor isn’t going to keep your significant other from snoozing. But the partial walls and open pathways keep the loft feel alive.
On the other side of the closet is a great approximation of a master suite, with cozy accomodations, tons of storage, and a freshly renovated master bath with an enormous vanity, fresh tile, a separate tub and shower, plus even more closet space.
Do you want loft living but don’t need views? Want to live in the thick of the Farmers Market area but don’t want to lose touch with Deep Ellum? This could be the historic loft condo for you!
