Overhead lighting in all rooms and tons of outlets throughout the home, this space was created with convenience in mind.

Peacefully painted a calming summer blue, the downstairs bathroom offers bathtub and shower. Room for addition storage. Good for family and baby.
Outside balcony offers a sunshine ladden view of Olde Kensington and a vantage point to enjoy the buzz of the neighborhood. Lots of outdoor concerts occur next door at Punch Buggy Brewery and street festivals during Fall/Summer. Ample free street parking for guests, but protected Permit parking ($75/yr thru city) on Jefferson Street for residents of 1500 N American and our neighbors on Jefferson ensure you're not circling for parking in what can be perceived as a busy area.
Up a flight of stairs, enjoy the privacy of a massive primary bedroom, twin vanity bathroom, huge beautifully tiled shower, linen closer, walk-in closet with overhead shelving, and office nook with shelving. Bathed in natural light the 2nd floor is a sanctuary in and of itself. Quiet between 1st & 2nd floor makes for an ideal setup for a family needing space from another or busy professionals sharing living/working space.
A downstairs caged storage unit in the basement makes seasonal changes easy. We are taking the shelves but highly recommend having shelves in the storage unit to maximize space.
Dual entrances are secure with a code for front door and a side gated arstorage. sharable code that allows packages to be delivered safely (you must give directions to UPS/FedEx/Amazon to use gate on American St) without permitting access to the inner building itself. In the gated area, we have bike racks for year-round athletic storage. We still recommend a kryptonite lock for bikes. This area is also pur garbage collection area.
HOA includes trash removal, monthly cleaning of common entrances and hallways, and snow removal during winter.
