What a rare opportunity. Downtown living, in a prime location just down the street from Westchester Lagoon and and the city's lighted trail system.

But what makes this gracious residence especially rare is that you can move right in! So often, as might be expected in the oldest part of the city, these homes are best-described as "remodeling opportunities". If you want a single family personal home, you often have to convert a home that's been configured for two to four families. And if you want a modern master bedroom suite, well, don't count on it.

Not here! Everything's been done over, from the walls out, and from the inside in.

  • The roof is new.

  • The walls are new

  • The siding, vinyl, is new

  • The insulation is new

  • The mechanical systems, hot water boiler for baseboard heat, and off-the-boiler continuous hot water maker, are new

  • The lighting is new

  • The flooring is new

  • The baths have been redone

  • The driveway is new

  • The gas direct vent fireplace is new

  • The Trex deck is new

  • The windows are new

Their work didn't stop there. An entire addition was added. It's a two-story greatroom, with walls of windows on all sides opening on the beautiful urban gardens. The living room, kitchen, breakfast bar and dining areas all have in-floor radiant heat under the bamboo flooring. Above it is a second family room, a versatile space. The rest of the second level is the master bedroom suite. Truly enormous, with generous south-facing windows, it has two closets, a sitting area, and a master bath with an oversized shower.

"Our theme in this project was easy-maintenance," the owners say. Doing this remodel in 2003 was a "once and done" activity.
