This gorgeous, sun-drenched condo is a vintage lover's dream--especially if you want to have an updated, functional kitchen to go with it. Located on the top floor and next to a park, it affords wonderful privacy, expansive treetop and city views, and incredible light that illuminates the generous 1400sf space. Entering the condo, you'll be struck by the 10ft. tall ceilings, open floorplan, and by the well-preserved hardwood floors and period woodwork throughout, lovely decorative fireplace with bookcases, and the original mosaic tile floor in the sitting/sunroom. The clever distribution and demarcation of areas allows flexible use as dining room, living room, and office and is a great space for entertaining guests or unwinding with a book. The updated kitchen is equipped with a plethora of white cabinets, stainless Bosch appliances and backsplash, plus granite counters, and has a seating area on the back deck just off it. The large primary bedroom features the original built-in and good closet space. There is lots of storage, both inside the unit and out, including a huge coat closet, a walk-in closet in the second bedroom, and a dedicated storage room in the basement. Also in the basement is the building's free laundry room and storage for bikes. If you need a place for your car, great! It comes with deeded garage parking. On top of it all, you don't have to limit your green thumb to houseplants if you live here as there's a beautiful yard with a bevy of perennials plus a south-facing raised bed garden for growing veggies. It's perfectly located for commuting, with the red line one block away and the Sheridan express bus to downtown two blocks down Foster. It's also short walking distance to the lake/beach/bike path, one block to two grocery stores (Mariano's and the Jewels) and a ten minute walk to all the restaurants, shops, and great venues in Andersonville and Uptown. The building is pet friendly, owner-occupied only, and has a well-run association with ample reserves and no upcoming specials or big projects. It's a special one--don't miss it.
