Creating a home that is “a great way to live downtown,” was the goal of the architect of 264 S. 11th Street. Indeed, this residence is just that with a supremely flexible floor plan, one-car garage parking and sensational skyline views - no surprise given that the architect is the renowned F Cecil Baker and this is his personal residence, designed for he and his wife. Directly from entering the home from the street or one car garage, the first floor was envisioned as an office/family room/ gathering space overlooking a quiet, idyllic sun-drenched Zen garden. The second floor is the heart of the house with 9-foot ceilings that the architect played with varying the height and creating a play with light and form - culminating in the tuning fork shape over the dining room. The kitchen is at the center of the dining room and living room in order to create connection and participation. The architect strives to create moments of synchronicity within this sculptural playbook to foster a sense of completeness. Each living space is visually linked and interconnected so that borrowed space is maximized. And this creates an ease of entertainment that living spaces can exist independently and yet there is always a feeling of connectivtiy. The primary suite encompasses the entire 4th floor with 2 walk-in closets, WC and oversized shower/tub area, and a private deck. Located on the 3rd level are 2 additional bedroom spaces with a compartmentalized bath with a large shower room and 2 powder rooms. This is truly a remarkable design utilizing every space to its fullest potential with unique design elements throughout. Completing the design is a fully finished basement. This is a must-see home. Walking distance to some of the best restaurants, shopping and parks in the city.
