Where historic charm meets modern style and functionality. Every interior surface has been ‘touched,’ from lighting, to paint, to new Marvin windows, to a brand-new powder room and an exquisite chef’s kitchen—the transformation is astounding! Step through the front door into a bright and inviting entry way with a stylish powder room with flattering lighting and chic wallpaper, and then wander into a light-filled living room with a custom-built corner gas fireplace. Next, walk through to open-flow dining and kitchen area with large windows allowing sun to cascade through, an oversized center island with richly hued ‘Billiard Green” cabinetry finished with white marble countertops, a large farm sink, and an impressive Bertazzoni range with double stove. Upstairs, are three spacious and bright bedrooms, plus a bonus room for office or storage. Also on the second floor is an ultrahip full bathroom with glass-encased, tiled, walk-in shower. Outside, your own private sanctuary awaits in the newly fenced yard featuring custom patio, new mahogany cascading deck, and 7-person hot-tub. With a new roof, electrical and plumbing, the heavy lifting has been done! Located just steps from the vibrant Broadway district, this property promises a coastal yet metropolitan lifestyle where the city's best amenities are just minutes away.
