I'm planning to move out in a month or two, and I've been dreaming up my perfect apartment space. So I thought this might make a good topic.
What is your dream apartment for when you decide to move out of your parents house? I'm not talking about homes for after you get married to your dream husband. I'm talking about the kind of place you live in as a single working professional or student. Ideally, I'd like a live/work loft; preferably the ones they've got in Santa Ana, either at the Santiago Street Lofts or The City Place Lofts. Live/work lofts are "mixed use" spaces... the ones I'm looking at are 3 story lofts where the bottom floor is actually a commercial space for a small business or office. Here are some pictures. These places have first floor commercial spaces that face some really nice streets/promenades with glass roll-up doors. The places in these pics have been staged for tours etc. so if I did happen to get a place in either of those buildings, it wouldn't look that good haha.

But I'm planning to work out a deal with my friend Pam so she can use the commercial space for the web firm shes opening and we can split the rent. Since I'm going to be working there, the commute would be AWESOME. hahahaha. |

Well, I'm definately a good deal of time away moving from my home. (6 years?) But since I'm planning on moving out and moving in with my best friend, we were hoping on saving up to find a nice apartment in Manhattan (yeah, okay) I can still dream! Probably a one or two room is fine for us. As long as we have two bathrooms and a corner table kitchen, we're happy.
