About this condo

Welcome to Orange Lofts, one of Calgary's most distinctive residences, located in the heart of the vibrant East Village.

Among the building's larger units, this remarkable home offers 894 sq. ft. of living space, highlighted by soaring ceilings over 16 feet and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the interior with natural light. Step inside and immediately appreciate the open-concept design, where authentic industrial elements blend seamlessly with modern urban living. Exposed concrete flooring, striking concrete ceiling beams, and expansive windows create a dramatic yet inviting atmosphere, while the generous ceiling height enhances the overall sense of space and openness. The kitchen is thoughtfully integrated into the main living area, featuring a full complement of appliances, laminate countertops, and ample workspace, making it equally suited for everyday living or entertaining. The open layout allows the kitchen, dining, and living spaces to flow effortlessly together, all framed by the incredible natural light and architectural character that make this loft so unique. The main level also features a full four-piece bathroom and convenient in-suite laundry. A striking industrial-style steel railing leads you upstairs to the spacious loft. Generously sized to accommodate a king-sized bed, this private retreat also offers flexible closet space and additional storage, creating a comfortable separation between the living and sleeping areas while maintaining the open loft aesthetic. Adding even more appeal is an impressive list of recent improvements, including a professionally completed full interior paint job, updated light fixtures, a newer dishwasher, a newer full-size stacked washer and dryer, and convenient motorized blinds. The property also includes a titled underground parking stall and a separate storage unit. One of the building's most memorable features is its incredible year-round rooftop terrace.
