This well-situated fully furnished 1 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom loft is in the heart of South Beach's lively tech and entertainment district on a low-traffic side street. With 15-foot ceilings and expansive windows, this light and airy 906 sq. ft. space (per owner) is well-suited for the city dweller. Like all true lofts, the upper level is partially open to the level below. The open living room offers entertainment options including a TV, cable TV, Apple TV, and BluRay (all available upon request). There's a fully equipped kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances (new in 2014), a covered patio, a work desk, and dining for four. The kitchen includes a full-sized refrigerator, a gas range, a dishwasher, a microwave, a toaster, a rice cooker, an immersion blender, a Nespresso machine, a coffee grinder, and a coffee maker. There's a full bathroom with a tub on the lower level and a half bathroom on the upper level. An iron, ironing board, and hair dryer are provided, as is wireless internet access. The loft is available for 6-12 month lease terms. 226 Ritch Street is a small live/work building located off a major street on a small one-way side street. There are only 8 units in the building and extra storage available, so there is plenty of room to stretch out, stash your stuff and make yourself at home. The building has an elevator and a fast, high-capacity commercial-grade laundry. This unit comes with an in-garage parking space that will fit a smaller SUV or standard 4-door sedan. This neighborhood, which is at the western end of South Beach near South Park (adjacent to Yerba Buena/Mission Bay, considered part of greater SOMA) has a little bit for everyone, from foodies to sports fans to people on business or attending conferences at Moscone. The former industrial neighborhood has been redeveloped into residences, restaurants, entertainment venues, offices, and live/work units. Former warehouses have been converted into lofts and high-tech offices. Located within a few blocks are AT&T Park (home of the SF Giants), the SF Museum of Modern Art, the Moscone Center, the waterfront, bars, clubs, sporting activities, grocery stores, parks and everything from small cafes to Michelin-starred restaurants. Offices of some of the leading names in the online/app world are nearby. You are within easy reach of the SF Ferry Building, world-class shopping at Union Square, live music venues, and the SF design district. There's convenient access to three subway/tram lines (two blocks), Caltrain (two blocks), and local buses (one block). Two major freeway ramps are within a 1/2 mile (1 km) of the home. Zipcars (short-term car sharing) are available at the end of the street, and a new bike sharing station is about a block away. It's little wonder that this is now one of San Francisco's most popular neighborhoods for eating, living, working, and playing.
