Description
Welcome to the iconic Lafayette Building, a treasured Art Deco landmark rich in history and character.

One bedroom offers a private entrance, presenting an ideal opportunity to rent it separately and offset mortgage expenses. The home boasts a bright, open-concept kitchen and living area, where timeless architectural details blend seamlessly with modern stainless steel appliances—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.Adding to its appeal, the unit includes in-home laundry hookups, a rare and valuable feature within the building. The HOA offers exceptional amenities, including two BBQ patios, a fitness center, meeting and game rooms, a playhouse, a laundry facility, and exclusive access to the 11th-floor solarium. The building is also VA approved.Located in the heart of a vibrant neighborhood, residents enjoy walking-distance access to local art galleries, boutiques, restaurants, and cocktail lounges.
