Both the kitchen and breakfast nook have east-facing windows that capture the morning light. The kitchen boasts a warm German Silver countertop and original cabinets. Follow the curved aluminum railing on the film-like sweeping staircase to the second floor, which features four bedrooms, two full baths, and a spacious outdoor balcony. The primary suite with its balcony captures the era’s charm, and the Art Deco Vitrolite bathroom that includes a large glass block wall, tiled shower, and all original fixtures. The finished walkout basement provides an additional 700 square feet of recreation space. It features an original copper fireplace, curved walls, and extended glass blocks with two exterior doors.
