A rare offering on Chinatown's beloved Chung King Road, this 1950 live-work property has been masterfully transformed by LOC Architecture into a singular creative retreat. The property is anchored by an expansive commercial space, with a stunning two-bedroom apartment on the upper level. The ground-floor storefront is a creative dream with soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, two bathrooms, a kitchenette, a storage mezzanine, and additional basement storage, ideal for a gallery, photo studio, or creative office. Upstairs, the residential space is a masterwork of ingenuity, rendered with concrete and wood, clerestory windows, and an open kitchen with bar seating. Enjoy two bright bedrooms, a bonus office, and two baths featuring a mosaic soaking tub and a striking pebble-tile bath. A rear balcony provides views of the DTLA skyline. The shared central courtyard is a unique setting for dining and gathering. You are moments from Pho 87, Yang Chow, and the galleries, restaurants, and creative community that make Chinatown one of LA's most exciting neighborhoods.
