This stunning 2BR/2BA loft offers sweeping northern and dramatic southern skyline views from the living room, bedroom, and private balcony. Where most Carlton Lofts residences feature the building's signature concrete floors, this exceptional unit sets itself apart with warm bamboo hardwood flooring - lending a level of refinement. Soaring windows, textured ceilings, and exposed beams complete the picture, striking a balance between historic character and elevated modern living. All appliances, including washer and dryer, were updated in 2023. Year-round comfort is ensured by four mini-split units and radiant heated floors throughout. The primary suite is a lovely retreat, complete with an en suite bath and generous walk-in closet. The entire second floor is open-concept - ideal for entertaining, having a home office, or both. The entry level offers a welcoming foyer, dedicated laundry room, full bath, and a flexible bonus room with a large closet, ready to serve as a guest bedroom, office, gym, art studio, or whatever suits your lifestyle. Hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were added in 2026 for added peace of mind. Building amenities include fenced and gated private parking, as well as convenient bike storage adjacent to the lower-level elevators. Just outside your door, the newly completed John R-Watson Park Improvement Project brings a beautifully landscaped green space to the neighborhood, featuring manicured lawns, a concrete walkway system, ornamental and shade trees, planting beds, brick piers, benches, upgraded lighting, a nature sensory zone, and more. Steps from acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, nightlife, LCA, theaters, and the heart of Downtown Detroit - this is historic Brush Park living at its finest.
