3 beds
3 baths
1,700  sqft
Built in 2002

Live the dream in Andersonville at this extra wide two-story duplex-up condo, offering over 1700 sf of living space + an enormous private roof space. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and multiple extra living areas- this home is sprawling and easy to live in! The most desired unit in the building, this condo shows off its two stories with a full wall of north-facing windows which overlook the mature and beautiful trees on Carmen Avenue. The open first floor has an expansive kitchen that flows to the living room. A separate dining or library area is flanked by custom built in bookcases. A gas fireplace warms the home and compliments the new hardwood floors. This level also hosts a half bath and bedroom with a large custom closet. The kitchen has plenty of cabinet space plus a newer oven and dishwasher ('21,22). There is also a large walk-in closet under the stairs allowing you to tuck away coats and other items, large and small. Upstairs, the primary suite is large enough for a king bed. It has a juliet balcony which showcases the treetop views. The primary suite offers 'his and hers' custom closets, plus a large marble bath with a double vanity, a rain shower and jacuzzi tub. The two upstairs bedrooms are situated opposite a large loft area which can be used as a second family space, office area, or workout room. Down the hall is the laundry closet and the 2nd full bath with brand new marble flooring. What makes this home unlike any other is the one-of-a- kind 850 sqf private rooftop, ready for you to create your perfect outdoor oasis. The previous owners enjoyed a full deck and a pergola, allowing them to spend three seasons among the treetop views, gorgeous sunsets, and lake breezes. Plus, snowball fights in the winter! Surprisingly quiet for an outdoor city space, the roof is high enough to be removed from the street-level noise and is unreachable by squirrels and bunnies, making it a dream for growing herbs, vegetables, and just about anything your heart desires. The special home was owned by the same owners since it was built in 2000. They took impeccable care of the unit and building. The property has been professionally landscaped with lush plants and hydrangeas that bloom year after year. The association is self managed by the 4 units, 3 of which are the original owners. All units are currently owner occupied. There are no rental restrictions. The building replaced the entire roof in 2023/24, including all supporting trusses, the ventilation system, and associated electrical, and insulation. The masonry was reinforced in 2023, as well. Updates to the unit are numerous, including NEW: Roof ('24), Hardwood flooring in main living areas ('24), Oven ('22), Microwave (2022), Furnace ('22), AC ('22), Water Heater ('22), Washer & Dryer ('21), Dishwasher ('21), Hot Water Heater ('19). Located in the wonderful McCutcheon Elementary school boundaries, The Condo on Carmen is steps from all that Andersonville has to offer! Named one of the best neighborhoods in the country, there is nothing better than strolling down Clark Street in the morning to grab your coffee and pastry at Lost Larson or La Colombe, while window shopping through the area's incredible stores. Then, meet up with friends for Patio Drinks and impressive meals. Our personal favorites are Bar Roma, Hop Leaf and Anti Prima. It's also just around the corner from the city-wide destination: Argyle Avenue aka ""Little Saigon", home to numerous Vietnamese and Chinese restaurants and shops. The Argyle red line stop is literally around the corner. This is an incredible place to call home!
