A designer kitchen with high-end finishes flows seamlessly between a formal dining area and a walk-out bluestone patio (installed in 2014), perfect for entertaining inside and out. Granite countertops, chosen for the perfect color to complement the exposed brick, pair with a large window and glass rear door to bring a balance of luxury and natural light to the kitchen. Tin ceilings exist under the kitchen ceiling for the buyer who may choose to restore to its original state. A chic powder room was added to the first floor and laundry on an upper level, both critical for vertical living.⁣
