This space flows seamlessly into the dining room, where a stunning exposed natural brick party wall adds character and a touch of rustic charm. The exposed brick anchors the room, adding a perfect mix of historic detail and modern style. At the back of the first floor, you'll find the fully renovated, open-concept kitchen. This space is a chef's dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, sleek granite countertops, and plenty of Forevermark cabinetry for storage.

The basement also features a second laundry area with hookups for another washer and dryer, adding extra functionality for larger households or long-term guests. This home underwent a complete renovation in 2016, blending the best of its historic origins with contemporary upgrades. While the exposed brick in the dining room showcases the home's early 20th-century craftsmanship, the modern updates in addition to those mentioned above, include fresh paint throughout, a new water line (2024), a stunning skylight in the bedroom bathroom, and a host of smart home features: oven, thermostat, washer, dryer, and water heater are designed for convenience and comfort to ensure the home is move-in ready.
