A unique 3 bedroom 2 bath townhouse condo in a renovated Itallinate Manse that feels like a single-family but with the benefits from the common association. High on a bluff off of Chestnut Ave, the secluded leafy grounds are both private and easily accessible to the heart JP. The grand living room opens into the large dining room accented with bay windows, custom built-in seating, gas fireplace, and inlaid hardwood floors. The kitchen was gut renovated in 2015 and the major systems of HVAC were done at the same time. On the second floor are two large bedrooms sharing an oversized bathroom with full laundry. Off to the side is a built-in library. The top floor suite is a wide room of deep plush carpet and high vaulted ceilings with bright skylights. The master bath also renovated in 2015 is a showpiece with steam shower, soaking tub and Japanese Hi-tech toilet. The building is surrounded by decks and a verdant park-like common garden, parking for two and storage in the basement.
