About This Home
As of June 2023Welcome to 2515 Emerald St., a beautiful 3 bed, 2.5 bath corner home in East Kensington. The interior was completely renovated in 2018 and features elements of both modern and classic design. The well-maintained brick façade and freshly painted red front door give way to a spacious open floor plan highlighted by high ceilings, an electric fireplace, three exposures, and decorative wooden beams. Just beyond the living room is the fully updated eat-in kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a large island with seating. Multiple shaker wood cabinets provide ample storage space. Custom light-filtering blinds afford privacy without sacrificing the bright natural light. From the kitchen, step out into the large, private backyard. This unique space is an urban oasis with near limitless potential! The basement is accessed through a door in the kitchen. Currently, it functions as storage space but could easily be finished into extra living space. On the second floor are two large bedrooms with a centrally-located full hall bathroom. Next to the bathroom is a full laundry room equipped with washer and dryer.
Each bedroom has its own spacious closet and large corner windows, all of which are treated with custom adjustable wooden blinds. The third floor is a dedicated primary bedroom, again with corner windows and custom treatments, en-suite bathroom, and two large closets. At the top of the staircase landing, new sliding glass doors lead to a spacious roof deck complete with durable Trex flooring and steel railings. Open House is Saturday, May 13th from 1 PM to 2:30 PM.
