Chances are youâve walked or driven by this exciting new listing thousands of times and never known it existed. The outside is reminiscent of Forrest Gumpâs famous box of chocolates, as low key as it gets, but inside is a stellar surprise. The only way to fully understand it is to take a tour. Open the front door and a long Japanese-style corridor greets you with an intriguing flash of bright sunlight in the distance. Continuing onwards, the corridor leads to a reception desk, a separate office, and a conference room with shoji screens. Around the corner is an 18' x 18' full width atrium, with 16â ceilings, full sized Ficus trees and plumbed for a fountain or hot tub, 18' x 22' skylights that flood the entire core of the building with daylight. The ground level of the atrium is surrounded by two to three workstations on the first floor, a large kitchen and office in the rear with massive amounts of storage. A 2nd level mezzanine on the South side overlooking the atrium offers plenty of space for multiple workstations. The 3rd level rear mezzanine has a treehouse office, with huge windows overlooking the atrium, plus another large, open office. The 3rd level front mezzanine is another open office area or two with a conference room, full bath and multiple skylights. All in all, there are 4 enclosed offices, open space for 7 or more workstations, two conference rooms, the kitchen area, 2 powder rooms and a full bath, plus plenty of storage. To top it off, a large steel spiral staircase leads to a huge roof begging for a deck or even another floor or two. In addition, there is a first floor front office which is self-contained with a high ceiling, separate utilities, a powder room, storage and door to the street. This property is 38â wide x 102â deep and covers the entire lot. There is a curb cut with 1-car garage parking in the front of the building. The garage ceiling is approximately 16â high with a huge skylight and plenty of space for a car lift to easily create a 2nd parking spot. This unique CMX3 property has enormous potential and can be used in a myriad of ways. Let your imagination run rampant. For instance, it could be: A real estate office A world class restaurant with dining on a green roof A doctorâs or lawyerâs office. A development project of gorgeous. A medical facility.
