About This Property
Mint, Large, Studio
Please note open houses are by appointment only, thank you.
Not to be missed! This mint, beautifully renovated studio extends an impressive 37.4 feet from the front door to the wall of windows. The renovation has just been completed, and this gem has not been lived in since. It offers a unique, well-thought-out layout. The gorgeous bathroom is a serene oasis in soft gray and white tones, while the never-used modern kitchen features quartz countertops and backsplash, stainless-steel appliances, abundant cabinetry and plenty of room for cooking. A spacious living area, dedicated dining area, three generous closets including a walk-in, new lighting, beautiful hardwood floors and sunny southern exposure complete this special home. Just bring your toothbrush!
