Do you have a vision that you will be a pioneer in the next great place? Are you ready to get there now? The new loft building was named one of ten best real estate deals. With FHA financing (may need to be re-initiated), the place offers the creative person the rare opportunity to own a genuine loft in an historic building, often FHA loans that can be as little as 3.5% down. Not only does that make it possible to own a chic loft in the Downtown L.A. area, but the FHA financing adds tremendous monetary investment value. What is easy to finance for purchase is also easy to sell, thus pushing up the value of the property more and more over time. Being the only genuine loft with FHA financing, loft units in the building can be a superior investment. SPECIAL UPDATE – FHA and VA financing has generally not been effective for condominiums in Los Angeles. Get FHA/VA details at https://www.laloftblog.com/?s=fha.
The eclectic mix of shops, restaurants and cafes of historic Lincoln Heights brings a true community vibe to the new lofts. Adding to the neighborhood’s appeal is its close proximity to Los Angeles’ most popular destinations. Dodger stadium, Walt Disney Concert Hall, MOCA and Downtown’s financial center are all just minutes away. With convenient access to three major highways and a nearby Gold Line stop, Pasadena, Glendale and Los Feliz are also easily accessible.
The building has a colorful past, giving it added texture and nuance today. Constructed in 1925, the building served as the Fuller Paint Company Warehouse for decades. Now, that same address is an important example of how adaptive reuse can artfully blend old and new to offer the best in contemporary living and still preserve a proud industrial heritage.
Building highlights include original four-story structure capped with two stories of newly constructed penthouse lofts, as well as direct-access, gated parking structure for residents and guests. Floor to ceiling industrial windows, along with retrofitted with dual panes are accompanied by exposed beam and ductwork. The exterior features fully landscaped open air courtyard and paseo, a fifth floor deck, and original concrete pillars throughout building. Historic high, board-formed concrete ceilings denote the first through fourth floors, as new-construction steel now forms the fifth and sixth floors.
The structure is a study in contrasts. The exterior features both neo-classic and contemporary touches. Inside, the same dichotomy holds with structural elements from the 1920s co-existing with modern kitchens, bathrooms and state-of-the-art sectional overhead doors. It’s an ideal mix, resulting in one-of-a-kind living spaces that radiate with light, energy and creativity.

BUYER TESTIMONIAL:
… a giant space for nearly a third of most lofts from Venice to Downtown. We also appreciated it being an FHA building… Our space is perfectly suitable for our needs. Everyone we worked with to get our place was very kind and helpful with no pressure. That was very important to us! NO PRESSURE! And we had many models to chose from, so we were able to find the best fit for us! Plus, everyone that has moved in thus far is wonderful and friendly. – Brian L. Jacobs
