About this home

Spectacular, sophisticated renovation by the architect-owner featuring design not typically found in a building of this vintage. No detail spared. From the exquisitely matched grain cherry veneer cabinets to the matching cherry baseboards. Taken down to the studs, insulated and reinforced, you'll find 125 amp service including a Lutron Radio RA full dimming system and matching electrical outlets and dimmers in every room, hardwired security and smoke detectors and cable in every room. The appliances are high-end from Bosch in the kitchen to Toto in the bathroom. This is a very sunny, corner unit in a pet-friendly, professionally managed building. Recent building upgrades include a newer boiler, conversion to gas and a state-of-the-art hot water system. Assigned parking and easy access to the Green Line complete the picture.
