Property Description
Welcome to Prospect Lofts. Here is where you will find your personal sanctuary in the city. Located just blocks from downtown businesses, restaurants and events, yet worlds away in terms of ambiance and attitude. Located within the historic district of Heritage Hill, this gracious landmark building was dedicated in1933 as the Bethlehem Lutheran Church. it was converted to living units, with all modern conveniences, in 2013. Completely unique in the area; every effort was made to retain as much of the original architectural details as possible. Stained glass, ornate structural beams & soaring ceilings foster feeling of comfort, security and peace. Yes, architecture has that power. Note the loving care that has been given to this unit: fresh paint throughout, a fully remodeled bathroom, and new flooring in the guest room. The kitchen is equipped with new stainless-steel appliances. The in-unit washer and dryer makes daily living easy, as does the dedicated off street parking spot.
