About This Home

As of November 2015

Abundant light, a generous open floor plan, and a picture window with a garden view characterize the spacious main living area of this modern unit, constructed in 2007. The well-appointed kitchen features black granite counters, maple cabinets, a high-end gas range for the serious home cook, and a breakfast bar. Opening off of the kitchen, the deck offers a private outdoor retreat. The master bedroom includes ample closet and storage space and an adjoining marble lined master bath with separate shower and bath. The proximity of the second bedroom and bath make it easy to comfortably accommodate guests or provide more everyday private living space. Adding ever more appeal to this sophisticated home is off-street parking in the prime JP neighborhood of Hyde Square. Restaurants, bars, shopping, transportation, and more are all right outside the door.
