Dallas Design District Conversion!
Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For SaleAnyone looking for something a little different in their house search might want to take another look at Dallas. Aside from being a very lively and popular city to live, it also offers many creative living possibilities. It’s easy for Dallas to boast that it has something for every taste, whether it’s in housing, dining, the arts, entertainment or sports. Just the name "Dallas" conjures up images of big oil money, cowboys, ranches, Dallas the television series, great bars with line dancing and maybe even Cadillacs with steer horns on the hood. We visualize everything from burley oil field workers to cheeky blonds in their cowboy boots - cowboy boots on everyone - and the Dallas Cowboys football team - a lot. Yes, you can still find the rough and tumble in Dallas if you look for it as you can in almost any western city. But with the advent of the technical age, Dallas too has adopted an air of sophistication with centers for art and design, and an influx of tech-age companies and diversified business growth that created the demand by residents for more upscale creative lifestyle choices. Today, if you can think it, Dallas can provide it.
For those looking for a home with an industrial feel and who have a creative edge, this property conversion in the Design District is just the thing. Formerly the Viking Freight Company that was built in 1948, the current owner and her husband, an architect, transformed the building into a stunning industrial loft residence of five bedrooms, seven baths with a two-car garage. Visitors are greeted by a large custom rotating door that opens into a hallway with huge circular skylight. Floors are polished concrete, original factory steel beams are exposed and the large well-equipped kitchen is stainless steel. The living room has a gas fireplace that was inserted into an original concrete block wall.
Zoning permits almost any use of the property from residence to art galleries to most any kind of business with parking for 80 cars. For more information.
