About this home

Multiple exposures bring glorious light streaming into this second floor, corner unit in the original ‘Harlow Building’ on Linnaean Street. A recent renovation created a large open living, dining and kitchen area, anchored on one end by a decorative period fireplace and on the other by custom built bookcases framing a lovely cushioned reading bench. The Belgian bluestone entry floor transitions beautifully to the restored quarter-sawn oak flooring throughout the rest of the space. The kitchen features a large soapstone peninsula, stainless appliances and a hand-painted tile back splash. Through double French Doors in the living room is a large office or second bedroom with a wall of windows on one side and custom bookcase on another. The renovation of the bathroom includes exquisite European fixtures, a glass transom at the ceiling and a custom glass shower surround. If a prime location of a fabulously renovated 5 room condominium is what you have been looking for, your search is over!
