This stunning home combines timeless character with contemporary upgrades, offering an unparalleled lifestyle just steps from parks, dining, and transit. Step into the living room, where soaring high ceilings, gleaming hardwood oak floors, and recessed lighting create a bright, airy ambiance. Smooth-finish drywall and open-tread stairs with custom railings add a modern flourish. The open-concept layout flows naturally into the formal dining area and gourmet kitchen, featuring GE stainless steel appliances, a five-burner self-cleaning oven with griddle, white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a built-in microwave, and a sleek steel fume hood accented by a subway tile backsplash. The primary suite is a true retreat, boasting a brick-accent interior wall, hardwood floors, and a bay window that bathes the space in natural light. Indulge in the spa-inspired bathroom with a double shower stall, dual shower heads, and dual vanity. A walk-in closet and access to a sunny roof deck complete this luxurious haven. Two additional bedrooms on the second floor offer high ceilings, ample closet space, and contemporary ceiling fans, complemented by a stylish hallway bathroom with marble tile, shower-over-tub, dual vanity, and Bluetooth speakers for a touch of modern convenience. A full-size LG washer/dryer is neatly tucked into a closet for added practicality. The finished basement impresses with durable LVP flooring, abundant storage, and a chic wine bar featuring a mini fridge and granite countertop—ideal for hosting or relaxing.
