A quick observation shows that the outside has been as meticulously planned as the inside. Perennial plantings of varying layers and a privacy fence allow you to appreciate your urban oasis through all seasons.

Back inside and upstairs, a wide landing leads to three bedrooms. Two bedrooms are served by the main bath - timeless finishes collude with a crisp white backdrop for a polished and chic outcome. Two bedrooms are warm and inviting, with ample closet space. Enjoy the Scandinavian-chic vibe throughout, including in the master bedroom.

Slick, floating double vanities and built-ins repeat the familiar theme of ease and class in the ensuite. A porcelain tiled walk-in shower, globe lights and chrome accents round out this space.

In the basement, ceramic and engineered hardwood pair warmth and functionality.
