About This Property
Welcome home to your penthouse-level one bedroom, nestled away in a quiet courtyard building.
Greenery on one side and a peaceful courtyard on the other create a European-style atmosphere within this historic apartment.
With nine total windows, including north and south exposures plus three skylights throughout, the light is constant. Original exposed beams add character, while the layout is sensible. The walk-in closet is oversized and rare, made even better with its own skylight. A built-in breakfast bar adds flexibility, and the vaulted ceilings stretch over 11 feet. The bathroom is generously sized and nicely renovated, featuring a deep soaking tub. The entire apartment has been thoughtfully updated throughout.
Guarantors, parental purchasing, and pied-à-terre use all permitted.
