The white kitchen with stainless appliances and gas cooking offers a breakfast bar and window overlooking School St. The private deck is located through the living space and a common courtyard is a few steps away. The renovated bath has subway and penny tile accents. There are 2 storage areas in the lower level for Unit #1, an open area of ~162 sf and a private storage locker. Easy access from the street or common area is a welcomed amenity for strollers, bikes, skis or golf clubs. Best of all, an expansive roof deck with multiple seating areas overlooks the whole city awaits residents on warm Spring evenings
