Located on the 5th floor with north-facing, double-wide street views and warm indirect light, this home is presently used as a 3 bedroom plus an enormous photography studio/home office that could easily be reimagined as a luxurious primary bedroom suite.

This was originally the living room and kitchen of an apartment that was combined into this home and still has the pipes for the kitchen covered up in the walk-in closet where you can install a washer/dryer. This room can easily be reimagined into a spacious and luxurious primary suite or into a multitude of other uses. Central air as well as washer/dryer are permitted with board approval.
