This 18-foot-wide former storefront with a huge private patio was converted by a local restoration specialist into their own dream home, and now it’s your turn. The commercial space is no more, replaced with the stylish finishes, sleek minimalist design and thoughtful repurposing of materials we’ve come to know and love from Wagner Urban Development. Featuring multiple living spaces, knockout kitchen and baths, super high ceilings, a mix of original and salvaged hardwood floors and oversized Jeld-Wen windows throughout, the design creates a statement of its own while being completely timeless. The kitchen is the hub of the main level and features Caesarstone countertops and backsplash, stainless steel undermount sink with gooseneck faucet, a mix of open shelving and custom Ultracraft cabinets with undercabinet lighting, and Muuto pendant lamps. This minimal yet warm and vibrant space opens to a dining room at the front and steps up to the living room at the rear, where floor-to-ceiling windows overlook a city dweller's dream: a large slate tile patio with in-ground planting beds, ample space for furniture and planters, and even a peach tree. There are two super spacious bedrooms on the second level; the front has two oversized windows and sweet built-in shelves and the rear has a deep closet and view of the patio. Hardwood floors run through to the bathroom, which houses the full-size stackable laundry in addition to the Nameeks sink, Artimede lighting and extra-wide walk-in shower with royal blue subway tile surround, frameless glass doors and Hansgrohe fixtures. Occupying the entire third level is the primary suite with Juliet balcony at the rear, two huge closets and gorgeous wax finish hardwood floors that continue into the bathroom with deep soaking tub with subway tile surround, Hansgrohe fixtures, towel warmer, dual Nameeks drop-in sink and separate water closet. The basement is available for storage with Bilco doors to the sidewalk for easy move-in and -out in addition to interior access. Situated in the heart of Bella Vista, it's the perfect location to leave the car parked and enjoy the neighborhood or utilize the Broad St line and I-95 when commuting is a must.
