Welcome to 527 E Fort Ave, Gutted and rebuilt from top to bottom five years ago, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath stunner pairs modern comfort with real character, and it comes with rooftop deck overlooking the water. The first level offers an open floor plan concept with a half bath, recessed lighting, and exposed brick. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, shaker cabinets, quartz countertops & desk area counter space for two. Upstairs, the second level holds two bedrooms: a primary suite with its own bath, plus a second bedroom with a full hall bath and a stacked washer/dryer close at hand. Climb to the third level for a second primary suite with an en suite bath, plus a sitting or office area with a wet bar. From there, step out to a two-level deck and follow the spiral staircase to the rooftop, where the water and city views are among the best around. The finished lower level has a good size recreation room with recessed lighting and storage. The big-ticket work is already done. Five years ago the home received all-new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, windows, roof, and water heater. It’s also wired throughout for internet and audio, with Sonos and ceiling speakers in the living room, kitchen, and third-floor wet bar area, plus audio on the roof deck. Wi-Fi access points on three floors make working from home easy. Part entertainer’s dream, part work-from-home haven, this one is move-in ready.
