Offering a blend of modern convenience and classic charm, this home features high ceilings with beams and large windows, and is just waiting to be loved and cared for.

This unit is unique in that there are no neighbors on either side (there are stairwells instead), providing an oasis of quiet. Upon entry, you will find a generous foyer and coat/utility closet with additional space to take a load off and hang your coats, keys and bags.

The open living area accommodates both lounging and sleeping, with 2 oversized east-facing windows facing a serenely peaceful back courtyard (unit faces the side of an adjacent brick apartment building roughly 30 feet away, and is roughly 30 feet off the ground).

The windowed kitchen includes a gas stove, microwave, and full size fridge, and is waiting for your imagination to reinvent this compact yet functional space (there is currently no dishwasher).
