According to a plugged-in tipster, the 5,000 square foot Fougeron Architecture designed “Tehama Grasshopper” loft also known as 431 Tehama #2 is hopping back on the market. Listed in August 2009 asking $4,128,000, the 2007 AIA Tour home was withdrawn from the market in February 2010 and will be listed for $3,995,000 in 2011.
This time, however, the 3,000 square foot commercial condo below the Grasshopper also known as 431 Tehama #1 (or Fougeron Architecture’s HQ) is hitting the market at the same time asking $1,500,000 (mini not included but we bet it could be negotiated).
Call it $5,495,000 for 8,000 designer square feet.
It’s a lot of nice-lookin’ space, but man it’s brutally spendy.
I understand all of the love for 2207 Scott, even if it’s not at all for me.
This place is simply stunning. Yes, the location is iffy, has a pol of about three potential buyers and requires a near-monastic existence… but it’s really something else.
With all that space it seems like splitting this into six smaller lofts would be the obvious way to go, though even at this reduced asking price it would still be hard if not impossible to make such a conversion pencil out.
Two words for the Seller and his Agent: Not going to sell at that price. Oh wait, that’s six words.
Is there a link to the listing for Unit #1?
Down to 3.695.
Six photos of the office space are now up on MLS.
The listing for 431 Tehama #2 (a.k.a. the Tehama Grasshopper) has been withdrawn from the MLS after 257 days on the market without a sale but having since been leased.
Hopped back on: 5.195, no tenant.
