Large 2 floor (second and third... floor) apartment on a great block in Bolton Hill! This unit was made 'modern' in the 80s and has a rare open main floor (not usual in a Bolton Hill home). Main floor has a large open living room with a small window seating area. The dining room is in the middle and open to the living. Behind that is the kitchen, pantry and small closets, along with a hallway to the back room. This room is best used as an office or den. It *could* be a bedroom but does not have a door or a specific closet. There is also a half bath with shower.
An open staircase with skylight and large ledge (great for plants or for your cat to sit on!) leads to the second floor, featuring two large bedrooms, each with nice windows and a cedar closet. The main bathroom is also on this floor. Main bedroom also has large built-in shelves.
Kitchen has newer appliances - oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and disposal and lots of cabinets. The dining/kitchen area also has a large pantry with shelves
New laminate hardwood floors throughout! Central AC/Heat and energy efficent window in the back.
In the large basement, you will find plenty of storage along with a dedicate (free!) washer and dryer. There is also a back door to walk out to the shared patio out back, as well as direct access to the alley for easy bike entry!
Pets are allowed with a one-time pet fee, subject to approval and lease terms. (Pet fee is $300 one-time per pet)
Water and sewer are included in the rent for the first two occupants. If 3 occupants, there is a $150/mo charge. Electric, Gas and Internet are your responsibility
*We lived in this unit when we moved to Bolton Hill originally, so it is well maintained. We have a great tenant downstairs, and the block and neighbors are just awesome and very social.
Location cannot be beat. 6-7 min walk to Penn Station for Amtrak and Marc trains. 2 min walk to the light rail. 5 min walk to the metro subway. The block is closed off at the bottom meaning zero traffic and (usually!) very easy parking.
**note - maximum of three occupants in this unit!
