Perfect in so many ways. This beautifully renovated garden apartment sits on the rear side of the majestic 83 South Avenue Victorian building. Quiet and private, it is just a short stroll to all New Canaan has to offer. Unique in its simplicity and aesthetic beauty, massive outdoor columns frame your very own private doorways to the unit, complete with covered porticos and a brick-lined walkway. This is the only unit in the building with a private patio for gardening, dining al fresco, or enjoying the outdoors right outside your kitchen. Inside, you'll find a lovely living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. Designer touches abound, from the detailed transom glass leading into the bedroom to the custom built-in armoire in the hallway. The kitchen and bath are updated in a timeless design, including a designated laundry closet. You'll enjoy the ease of movement from the kitchen to the patio and beyond. For library buffs, downtown aficionados, and commuters, this is a rare find.
