Kress Department Store, The Kress Lofts are among Long Beachs most iconic residential conversions and Unit 8D might just be the best loft on the market today. Perched on a coveted eighth-floor corner, this turnkey showpiece has been dramatically reimagined with nearly $50, 000 in high-end upgrades and system enhancements all included in the sale. Soaring 15-foot ceilings, exposed brick, concrete floors, and massive industrial windows flood the space with light and frame sweeping city views. The brand-new chefs kitchen stuns with bespoke walnut cabinetry, honed Taj Mahal stone, an oversized island, and a full suite of premium stainless steel appliances. Both bathrooms have been luxuriously remodeled, including a marble walk-in shower and striking emerald tile powder room. Modern life here is effortless. Alexa-enabled smart home features control lighting, audio, and the newer HVAC system. A state-of-the-art Sonos system, Samsung gallery TV, and upgraded appliances all part of the sale elevate everyday living. Additional highlights include generous storage, a walk-in closet, elevated sleeping loft, in-unit laundry, and one of the buildings best deeded parking spaces. Residents enjoy secure entry, a panoramic rooftop lounge with BBQ, and an unbeatable location just moments from restaurants, bars, galleries, and the waterfront.
