This sun-filled top corner brownstone gets incredible light from the south and west and is nestled on Columbus Ave, just blocks from Bay Bay. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, tile backsplash, pendant lighting, and a farmhouse sink, plus plenty of storage! The open layout offers generous space for entertaining, with room for dining on either end. The expanded bathroom features double vanities, ample counter space, and a large glass walk-in shower. The bedroom is bright and spacious, with four oversized windows overlooking Rutland Square. One of the standout features is the massive walk-in closet, complete with custom shelving and well-organized storage. To top it all off, there’s a private treetop terrace off the primary, perfect for unwinding after a long day.
