Real Estate Crush: A Downtown Petoskey Loft with a Rooftop View

A century-old brick building, a contemporary loft and a rooftop perch above downtown Petoskey make a strong case for a different kind of Up North living. We first fell for this downtown Petoskey loft when we featured it in Northern Home & Cottage: exposed brick, original maple floors, soaring ceilings and big windows overlooking Little Traverse Bay, with just a smidge of loft-in-the-city DNA. Now the 2,322-square-foot condo is on the market for $1,795,000, offering someone else the chance to take over this decidedly different kind of NoMI home.
