Tired of boring boxes? Looking for space with character, grace & charm? This may be the one! Architecturally stunning with beamed ceilings, handsome columns, decorative original fireplace mantel, pocket doors, some original glass fronted cabinets, handsome pine floors and a huge gracious entry; the best of a bygone era. Combine that with replacement windows that let the sun shine in, a modern kitchen, and newly renovated period bath and you have the perfect combination of old and new. And did I mention that there is a balcony? There is a stunning roof deck with lots of nice seating and a 360 degree view of the city. The building also has a gym, laundry ( which is free) , a bike room and extra storage comes with the unit. Pets ok. The monthly fee includes, taxes ($205.60), the payment on the underlying mortgage ( $26,721.28 balance and a payment of $225.23), and operation maintenance and heat ($373.48) which is actually quite reasonable for an apartment of this size. Great urban location with a walk score of 99 and a bike score of 97. A real treasure.
