About this home
Rare parlor-level, two-bedroom floor through on one of the South End’s most coveted streets. This spectacular residence blends historic charm with contemporary refinement — soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and an original decorative fireplace create a dramatic, welcoming centerpiece for the open-concept living, dining and kitchen. The chef’s kitchen is beautifully appointed with premium appliances, an abundance of cabinetry and Opus White stone countertops. The primary bedroom offers generous closet space with additional overhead storage and two large windows allowing for ample natural light. A well-proportioned 2nd bedroom comfortably accommodates both a queen bed & home office. Just off the bedrooms, a renovated full bath featuring an oversized walk-in shower and modern fixtures. Additional features include central A/C and in-unit washer/dryer. Ideally located just steps from Ringgold Park & all of the South End’s finest restaurants, galleries, and daily conveniences. A must see!
