About this home

Set back from the street along a charming walkway, this townhouse offers a rare sense of privacy in the heart of the city. The thoughtfully designed open-concept main level is filled with natural light, seamlessly connecting the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The kitchen features shaker cabinets, a lovely window seat, and soapstone countertops. French doors open to a spacious private deck, and steps down to a large patio with landscaped yard with mature plantings. An oversized shed, added in 2024, is ideal for bikes, strollers, or gardening tools. Soaring ceilings and abundant skylights brighten the entire top floor, welcoming you to a primary suite with custom California Closets, on suite bath, plus the second bedroom and bath. The lower level offers a versatile family room, in-unit washer and dryer, generous storage, and direct access to the backyard. Thoughtfully positioned, the condo enjoys a rare sense of openness and separation from neighboring properties. Off-street parking.
