Behind This Concrete Wall Lies a Beautiful Lionel Morrison Townhome

The neighborhood we are now calling Knox Park has always attracted young professionals. Even as far back as the 1980s, it was the cool place to live for those wanting a walkable lifestyle. Remember, not much was walkable back then, so anyone moving from New York or Chicago gravitated here.
Since developers have discovered the area, it has only grown in desirability. With a new park anchoring a massive development that includes the Auberge Collection hotel, luxury residences, and a 27-story apartment tower, the time to snag a home here is right now, and have we got a beauty for you.
Remember, I mentioned this area has always been cutting-edge. Back in 1999, internationally recognized, award-winning architect Lionel Morrison designed multiple townhouses along Travis Street, all with the same clean lines and mix of concrete, glass, and wood. Passing by, you’d never give them a second glance, and that was intentional. There is almost a fortress effect to the bold concrete wall with a central gate leading to the townhomes. If you want privacy and security in a central location, it does not get better than this.
Step inside that central courtyard and head inside this Knox Park townhome at 4335 Travis St. You’ll find a world of light and striking views awaits. Morrison favors open plan layouts but offers a beautiful division of spaces with warm wood panels here. He has always put nature front and center in his designs, so you will find every room has a view through expansive windows and art-focused spaces.
Architects consider how we utilize space and are always ahead of the curve. Morrison determined that a ground-floor primary suite was important in 1999. It took a decade for everyone else to catch up.
The second level features the public spaces, with an open-plan living and dining area, a study, an exercise room, and terraces wherever you look. The third level has two more bedrooms and a full bathroom.
There is essentially no reason to have a car in Knox Park. You can walk to Trader Joe’s, the Apple Store, Restoration Hardware, and a myriad of restaurants. This is an excellent opportunity to get into this neighborhood before prices skyrocket again.
