Originally built in 1932 and converted into 26 lofts in 1996, the historic Envelope Factory is one of Yerba Buena's most distinctive architectural conversions. Residence 106 offers a rare private street entrance on Tehama and approximately 1,566 sq ft of flexible live/work space positioned at the intersection of Yerba Buena's cultural district and SOMA's creative and innovation corridor. A dramatic two-story wall of windows defines the main level, drawing in natural light and creating a sense of openness. Hardwood floors anchor the living area, including a hand-painted mural by local artist Jessie Sabogal. A concrete and steel staircase rises to the mezzanine above, reinforcing the loft's authentic industrial framework. The open stainless steel kitchen, complete with gas range, refrigerator, dishwasher, and industrial shelving flows seamlessly into generous living and dining areas designed for gathering, working, and creating. A discreet main-level half bath enhances everyday functionality while preserving the clean architectural lines of the space. Upstairs, the mezzanine-level primary suite offers comfortable proportions, cork flooring, and abundant custom storage. The bath is thoughtfully composed with custom tilework, an open walk-in shower, and a sculptural Aquatica soaking tub, balancing industrial materials with refined comfort. In-unit laundry and forced air heating provide modern convenience within the historic structure. Just blocks from Yerba Buena Gardens, Oracle Park, museums, acclaimed dining, neighborhood cafs, shopping, transit lines and commute routes the location offers a rare blend of cultural depth and forward-looking energy in the center of the city.
