Incredible unit in the iconic Franklin Lofts! The entire building underwent an exquisite renovation in 2004, featuring top-tier finishes and exceptional craftsmanship. This is truly one of the best spots in the building-on the top floor, tucked at the back, with a full bank of south-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. Upon entering, you'll be captivated by the striking concrete floors, soaring 13-foot ceilings, exposed steel trusses and ductwork, and warm maple millwork. The open-concept layout offers flexibility for living and entertaining. The kitchen, complete with a center island, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops, is perfect for cooking and hosting. Additional perks include in-unit laundry and two assigned parking spots. Step outside to the beautifully landscaped courtyard with gardens, grills, and patio seating-ideal for entertaining, unwinding, or socializing with neighbors. This is the original owner's unit, never lived in or rented, and only used for about 100 days in the past 19 years, so it's in pristine condition. The prime location offers easy access to dining, shopping, and entertainment-just steps from Eat Street, the MIA, and minutes to downtown and Nicollet Mall. Don't miss this one!
