The perennially popular Wooster and Mercer Lofts offer dramatic living spaces and an ideal location. Positioned along Arlington’s trendy Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor, industrial-chic complex with its brick buildings and massive factory style windows was developed by Abdo and designed by Cunningham | Quill Architects, with interior details that include 142-year-old bricks that were repurposed from a former Washington, DC convent known as the Little Sisters of the Poor. It is rare that new listings pop up at Wooster and Mercer, and once one does hit the market, it usually gets scooped up quickly. That said, there is one condo that became available in January.
Unit #W206 on the Wooster building has two bedrooms and two baths, and is being offered at $1,170,000. The 1,642 square foot residence has an open layout with living, dining, and cooking all in the same large and airy area. Signature exposed brick accents are further embellished by exposed overhead ductwork, along with hanging pendant lights and a wall of windows. The open gourmet kitchen has granite counters, custom wood and glass cabinetry, a Wolf gas range, and a large Sub-Zero fridge. A lovely primary bedroom suite features wood and glass doors, a wall of windows perfect for placing a love seat by, a huge walk-in closet with custom organizers, and an attached bath with a dual sink vanity. A laundry room off the second bathroom adds extra convenience.
