Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Serhant.
The garden unit is one bedroom with an open concept kitchen and living area, and it has direct access to the backyard. That layout connects cooking and sitting in one room, though there's less separation between cooking, working and relaxing. I like that the garden level opens straight onto the yard.
The upper duplex is a three bedroom unit with a private deck off the kitchen, and stairs from the deck lead down to the backyard. It's tenant-occupied, so for now the listing's description is what to go by.
Across the two units there are five bedrooms and four bathrooms in about 2,000 square feet. The home has a washer and dryer in the unit, and the listing describes it as being in good overall condition. The house was built in 1899 and is solid brick, with private outdoor space of over 60 square feet.
Raymond Bush Playground is about 4 minutes away on foot, Eleanor Roosevelt Playground about 7 minutes, and Jesse Owens Playground about 8 minutes. For groceries, Associated and Ideal Food Basket are each about 4 minutes away.
Botani, a coffee shop, is about 4 minutes on foot, and Tamá and Fermento are each about 6 minutes away. Pets are allowed, and the building is smoke-free and listed as green.
