Boston Seaport loft haas brick and beams, location

A spacious loft at Dockside Place in the Seaport District features high ceilings, exposed bricks and beams that are characteristic of the old warehouses owned by Boston Wharf Company at the turn of the last century.

Charles Joseph of Gibson Sotheby’s Realty’s Boston Waterfront is marketing Unit 303, one of the 31 units in the building at 15 Sleeper St., at $549,900.

The 1,153-square-foot condo enjoys a southern exposure, which ensures lots of light. It looks out onto a common courtyard, which is shared with 33 Dockside Place, a 58-unit complex.

The grand open space of this home  features a creative use of translucent wall panels that define the living spaces and provide privacy for the large, carpeted bedroom. The partitions also bring daylight into the interior spaces.

The chef’s kitchen was recently upgraded and features light wooden cabinets with raised panels, stainless steel appliances and black granite counters.

Exposed brick and thick Georgian pine beams add to the charm of this lofty condo.

It is open to the dining room, which in turn is open to a grand living room.

The bath, which has a combination tub/shower, was recently renovated too, and the vanity, topped with white stone, matches the kitchen cabinetry. A stacked washer/dryer is located in the bath.

The loft has central air conditioning, and wiring is in place for high-speed Internet, cable TV and telephone. A doorman staffs the professionally managed building.
