Do not miss this opportunity to occupy an entire brick townhouse, spanning more than 2,500 square feet across three finished levels, on a leafy Center Slope block. The two-family house is currently configured as a single family. Enter through the foyer of the garden level, which houses an expansive living room with custom built-in bookcases and leads to an eat-in chef’s kitchen. The kitchen offers a full suite of stainless steel appliances, including a five-burner range, above-range microwave, and dishwasher, upscale soapstone countertops, ample cabinet space, and a center island that opens to the dining area for entertaining ease. Off the kitchen is a laundry room with an LG washer/dryer and enclosed shelving that leads to the enchanted garden with a patio and lush perennial plantings—an oasis your very own. A powder room conveniently sits in the hallway. Down below is a full unfinished basement for storage. Two tremendous bedrooms, each with dual windows, are located on the parlor floor along with an oversized windowed full bathroom with access points from both the hallway and primary bedroom, which features a massive walk-in closet.

There are tall ceilings and windows letting in abundant light on this level. Up a flight on the sun-drenched top floor are three more bedrooms, two with pressed tin ceilings and one with a walk-in closet. One of the bedrooms can be used a large office or den with a decorative mantle and an opening to a windowed kitchenette with a stainless refrigerator and range. There is also spa-like bath with a custom walk-in shower and skylight above. There are gleaming updated hardwood floors, crown moldings, plentiful storage, and modern recessed lighting throughout the home.
