Elegant and sophisticated this is truly a one of a kind townhome in sought-after 16th Street Heights.
From the moment you step into this special home you feel you must pause to take it all in. The width and depth is unique and provides the most sensational sense of space. Combine this with the high ceilings, hardwood floors, and light, and the combination is just lovely. The front entry area is gracious and leads into the living room with large windows and views onto the porch. The dining area offers both formal and informal dining opportunities making this level quite versatile. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, gas cooking, island seating, and an abundance of storage. Opposite the kitchen is a large walk-in pantry, powder room, and coat closet. Towards the rear door is a mudroom/area for shoes, mail, and extra coats. This door leads to the main level deck for dining al fresco and outdoor entertaining. The second level landing and hallway allows for easy circulation between the bedrooms and is sun-filled from the skylight above. The primary suite feels luxurious with a private balcony and double vanity bath. Also on this level are two additional bedrooms and a forth room which is currently being used as combination office/fitness room. One of two laundry closets is on this floor. The well developed lower level is truly the icing on the cake. This bright space feels nothing like your average basement and has functioned for the current owners as a play space, guest suite and could even provide the next owners with potential rental income (front and rear doors). The second kitchen is substantial in size and includes table space. There is a bedroom, full bath, and the second laundry closet is on this level as well. Clever storage has been created under the stairs for camping gear and toys. The lower level rear door leads to space under the main level deck for play and a lockable storage space. The rear garden is truly a labor of love with peonies and hydrangeas and a combination of spaces to play and garden. The oversized garage makes coming and going a breeze and offers additional storage. Finally, there are PV solar panels (owned, not leased) to offset energy costs.
