Set within a rare brick-and-timber loft conversion–originally built as a printing plant in 1917–this extraordinary residence combines authentic industrial architecture with sophisticated city living. Seventeen-foot ceilings, massive old-growth redwood columns and exposed beams, original brick walls, and a wall of industrial windows give the home remarkable scale, warmth, and character.
Gutted and completely reimagined in 2006, the 2,063-square-foot +/-, two-bedroom, two-bath, two-level residence was transformed by prominent Bay Area luxury builder Moroso Construction. The finished loft was featured by Moroso as a showcase of its work.

Main Level
Enter through a gated street-level courtyard and building lobby leading directly to the first-floor residence. Step inside to an entry hall with warm oak hardwood flooring.
To the right, a full guest bath is finished in Italian travertine, with a brick-patterned tub surround and tile wainscoting. A hammered copper vessel sink sits on an antique wood vanity, with wall-mounted faucet. At the far end of the room, a pocket door opens to a laundry closet with stacked LG Tromm front-loading washer and dryer units.
Adjacent to the bathroom, a custom-designed sliding glass door opens to a guest bedroom/office with refinished hardwood floors. The entry hall also includes a coat closet and Honeywell security system.
Step into the great room, where the loft opens dramatically beneath 17-foot ceilings. Old-growth redwood columns and a grid of beams overhead establish the space’s industrial history. Across the room, a soaring wall of arched warehouse windows framed in original brick draws light into the interior, punctuated by bold structural steel bracing.
To the right, the open kitchen is anchored by a custom granite island built around one of the original old-growth columns. The oversized square island serves as both a centerpiece and gathering place, providing a generous workspace, extensive storage, counter seating on two sides, and an integrated foot rail.
The chef’s kitchen includes a top-of-the-line suite of GE Monogram stainless appliances, including a refrigerator, built-in oven, microwave, and built-in wine reserve, as well as a Thermador radiant electric cooktop and Bosch dishwasher. A large built-in pantry provides additional storage.
Beyond the kitchen, expansive living and dining areas flow together in one continuous open space, surrounded by museum-scale walls ideal for showcasing art. A Lutron lighting system provides flexible illumination throughout, while the generous proportions allow for a variety of living, dining, and entertaining configurations.
Opposite the living space, a prominent 17-foot wall becomes an enormous viewing screen via a wall-mounted G26 projection system for an immersive viewing experience. In the far corner, three wide carpeted steps lead to a glass door with direct access to Bryant Street.

Primary Suite
A staircase with a custom-designed steel railing leads from the main level to a lofted primary suite. Added during the 2006 renovation, the eye-catching stairway brings a contemporary element to the building’s original timber construction.
At the top of the stairs, the lofted primary suite offers a private retreat while remaining open to the living space below, preserving a strong visual connection to the rest of the home. Original timber beams and industrial details carry the loft’s character into the suite, while soft carpeting adds warmth to the space.
The expansive primary bath is finished in Italian travertine tile, with brick-patterned walls echoing the guest bath below. It features a glass-enclosed shower with a shower head and a handheld fixture, a broad wood vanity with vessel sink, and extensive custom cabinetry. The suite also includes two walk-in closets, including an exceptionally spacious closet with built-in drawers, shelving, hanging space, and integrated laundry bins, plus a second walk-in closet beyond the shower.
