When architect Will Bruder creates an urban home, you can imagine that every detail has been considered, nuanced and designed to perfection! Offering a unique plan, elevation, and premium location, this home offers detailing that is completely custom: vertical apertures allowing subtle shifts of light; custom flooring, one-of-a-kind built-ins and custom floating cabinetry drive the sublime interiors. The interior spaces are superbly balanced, offering a scale that’s nearing perfection.

The kitchen is unique as well, featuring polished edge, random-orbit stainless steel counters, custom cabinetry, niched lighting/electrical, and stainless appliances.

Custom metal fabricated doors and screens perforate the interiors and hidden rolling doors provide access to the central built-in laundry center. Architectural porcelain tile floors grace the interiors, all with gallery finished wall base: the tile was selected, patterned and detailed by the architect.
