On 5th Avenue, just one block from Abbot Kinney and only a few blocks from the beach, this William Adams-designed townhouse delivers the scale and character of a chic loft in the heart of Venice. The architecture pays homage to New York's industrial heritage, where exposed beams, brick walls, and polished concrete floors set the tone for interiors that feel both modern and timeless. Reimagined with premium finishes, the home reveals thoughtful updates that enhance its style and everyday convenience. The entry opens into a dramatic three-story great room, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that wash the space with natural light. A fireplace grounds the living room with warmth and presence, while glass French doors connect to a private enclosed patio -- an outdoor extension of the living area suited for open-air dining and relaxing. The kitchen is a striking centerpiece with sleek cabinetry, a stone-topped peninsula, and Miele appliances including a wine fridge. Overhead, the eye is drawn upward toward the floating staircase crowned with a skylight and gallery-like walkways that overlook the main floor. Upstairs, the home unfolds to reveal two ensuite bedrooms, each with spacious walk-in closets. The primary suite is refined in its simplicity and set beneath vaulted ceilings, while the bathrooms echo the home's spirit with clean lines and contemporary finishes. A lofted office area and additional lounge space offer versatility, framed by crisp walls with built-in shelving and warm wood floors. Every detail speaks to scale and proportion: skylights and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood each space with daylight and ocean breeze, sightlines that layer openness with intimacy, and materials -- wood, steel, concrete -- that underscore the design integrity. Other notable highlights include a powder bath on the main level, a laundry room with storage, a built-in pantry, and two side-by-side parking spaces in the secure community garage. Positioned in one of the most desirable pockets of Venice, where Abbot Kinney's restaurants, boutiques, and coffee culture are at your doorstep, while Rose Avenue and the beach are only blocks away. Available for sale or for lease, this townhouse embodies the vibrancy of modern Venice living.
