CF Real Estate Services Announces 17th Street Loft Conversion

Staff Report From Metro Atlanta CEO

Monday, April 1st, 2019

CF Real Estate Services and Engel & Völkers Atlanta today announced the conversion of 17th Street Lofts to District Lofts, a collection of 147 condominiums perched atop the retail centerpiece of Atlantic Station, with the first phase of the project currently undergoing a $2.3 million renovation. District Lofts will feature re-imagined one, two and three-bedroom units priced from the $400s to $600s. The converted residences will be ready for move in by 2019.
 
“Finding homes in Atlanta’s hot real estate market at attainable price points is challenging for intown buyers. Introducing District Lofts at the epicenter of Atlantic Station provides for-sale homes that are in short supply,” said Christa Huffstickler, President & CEO of Engel & Völkers Atlanta. “Atlantic Station and West Midtown offer a coveted, intown lifestyle that will only increase in attractiveness as development in the area booms, and the loft-style product at this price point is a perfect addition to the residential market here.”
 
Located at 260 18th St. NW in the heart of Atlantic Station, the sought-after address provides buyers with like-new construction and convenient access to urban amenities. The homes will bring all new interiors with modern finishes and appliances, as well as improved technological capabilities in-home. The modern updates with the traditional loft features such as exposed duct work and open floorplans mix together to offer the upscale, fresh take on sought-after urban loft design.
 
New finishes include luxury quartz countertops, elegant pendant lighting and prefinished hard surface flooring complimented by a neutral color palate with tones of warm grey, white and soft browns. Catering to a lock-and-leave lifestyle, each home also comes equipped with smartphone compatible keyless entry among other hi-tech features, such as Nest thermostats.
 
Residents will be in the heart of Midtown’s premier intown entertainment district, Atlantic Station, which is undergoing a massive transformation offering over 50 unique restaurants and retailters including new concepts such as Gyu-Kaku; a variety of entertainment venues such as Bowlero, Regal Cinemas and a newly-renovated LA Fitness; and access to the Arts Center MARTA station via the Atlantic Station shuttle. Unmatched skyline views are added bonuses to this first-rate loft experience.
 
“With this influx of jobs and continued expansion of this walkable, highly connected submarket, we trust these condominiums will be well-received with buyers interested in the market,” said Huffstickler.
 
Partnering with CF Real Estate Services to sell and market the community, Engel & Völkers Atlanta will highlight the property’s recent improvements and advantageous location. District Lofts is the latest in Huffstickler’s Midtown and West Midtown portfolio; Engel & Völkers Atlanta has sold homes in the neighboring Atlantic community, which has undergone extensive renovations and improvements.
