Priced to accommodate a complete renovation, this is an ideal canvas for buyers looking to design a home tailored to their vision.
The Residence: Scale, Light & Endless Potential
Currently configured with three bedrooms plus a fourth room that can serve as a bedroom, home office, den, or formal dining room, the residence features three full bathrooms and coveted south, east, and west exposures providing natural light throughout the day.
An oversized living room serves as the centerpiece of the home, offering exceptional space for both everyday living and entertaining. The existing two-kitchen layout is configured as a full kitchen and a half kitchen, making a future reconfiguration into multiple residences both practical and realistic.
Additional conveniences include an in-unit washer and dryer, as well as eight generous closets throughout. All major appliances have been recently purchased.
