About this home
Set inside the historic Ayer Lofts, this distinctive one-bedroom loft blends classic mill character with the convenience of downtown Lowell living. Soaring 15-foot ceilings, exposed brick, hardwood floors, and oversized 12-foot windows create a bright, open atmosphere filled with natural light. The kitchen features white cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, generous counter space, and a peninsula with seating that opens seamlessly to the main living area. The flexible layout offers plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining, or working from home, while in-unit laundry and elevator access add everyday convenience. Located close to restaurants, shops, public transportation, parks, UMass Lowell, galleries, festivals, and downtown entertainment. Rented parking is available, and pets are permitted with restrictions.
