4053 Harlan Street #315 is a character-drenched, third-floor loft perched atop the historic 1917 Bauhaus-style Besler Building in vibrant Emeryville. The residents are a diverse, eclectic community of artists, designers, techies, entrepreneurs, and other professionals—each exploring their creativity in an iconic building that is legally zoned for live/work use. The vintage freight elevator, large enough to carry the steam cars that had been built here during WWII, provides a movie-like experience and makes moving a breeze. Step into this nonpareil unit with its singular, funnel-shaped floor plan, spotlighting soaring 14-foot ceilings and opening wide to 40 feet of north-facing casement windows. The loft combines industrial aesthetics with a tree-house vibe and contemporary comforts. The floor plan is infinitely customizable to match creative expression and artistic touch. This top-floor unit, with some of the best views in the Besler Building, is flooded with sunlight and offers a three-way panoramic view of the Bay Area, including San Rafael, North Berkeley, Pixar, and the Berkeley Hills. On a clear night, one is immersed in epic sunsets (the seller is the first owner in the building and chose this from all of the lofts). The loft features artisanal, hand-painted concrete floors evoking the elegance and old-world charm of historic Tuscan patios. The shimmering floor surface, divided into 5' x 5' squares, mimics the natural aging of handcrafted Tuscan palazzo tiling, characterized by warm, earthy tones, stone veining, and weathered textures.
