Perched on the sunny second floor of a classic duplex, this 2-bed, 1-bath condo blends vintage charm with thoughtful updates. With 1,145 sq ft and a flexible 6-room layout, there’s space to live, work, and entertain - plus untapped potential above. A hatch just off the kitchen leads to the attic, hinting at exciting possibilities for future expansion. Period details like original woodwork, hardwood floors, built-in china cabinets, and a cozy office nook with a bench add character, while central AC ensures year-round comfort. The kitchen opens to a private back porch and the large shared yard beyond. Exclusive laundry and storage in the basement offer added convenience. Serene, light-filled, and full of opportunity. Seller welcomes offers with requests for buyer concessions.
