540 Delancey Street #401

The South End Warehouse, originally built in 1892, was converted to brick-and-timber lofts in 1997, using reclaimed gymnasium wood floors, shoji-style walls, glass barn slider doors, and custom cabinetry. This top floor corner unit retains industrial design elements, like exposed wood beams, pipes, concrete, and high ceilings in all their glory. Spanning two open levels connected via a dramatic staircase, the loft features a generous entertaining "great room" with outstanding light, tree top views, and large industrial & transom windows opening to a large private patio. The entertaining Bulthaup kitchen has a sizeable island, tremendous storage with built-ins, stone counters, and Miele/Sub-Zero appliances -- including a wine fridge. There is room for an office area, and a full guest bath with laundry complete this level. The reclaimed wood floors continue to the upper level and into the bedroom suite, which offers a custom walk-in closet, a luxe bathroom, and large windows to the outdoor terrace with peek-a-boo Bay and East Bay hills views. One car garage parking, secure lobby, elevator, courtyard, located on a secluded historic brick block just seconds to the Embarcadero, Michelin-starred restaurants, major league ball parks, and transit lines.
