About This Home
As of March 2026Experience the charm of a European-inspired enclave on a quiet, tree-lined Gold Coast street. This intimate, five-unit elevator building offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and understated elegance. Set on an elevated first floor, the residence features soaring ceilings and grand south-facing windows that fill the home with natural light. The open yet distinct living and dining areas offer an effortless flow, enhanced by a lacquered living-room ceiling, rich hardwood floors, classic crown molding, custom built-ins, and a timeless woodburning fireplace-creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. The thoughtfully designed galley kitchen provides efficient functionality with room for culinary creativity. Both bedrooms are en-suite, offering comfort and privacy. The serene primary suite is a peaceful retreat, while the second bedroom-currently used as the owner's art studio-includes a built-in Murphy bed and opens to an enclosed, tiled deck for fresh air and relaxation. A bonus office nook is located adjacent to the well-placed powder room, making daily living and entertaining even more convenient. Additional highlights include in-unit laundry, central air, and pet-friendly living. Professionally managed. Nearby rental parking options complete this ideal Gold Coast home.
