Description

Open the door and take a moment. High ceilings, window seat, custom cabinets, custom fireplace surround. As you round the corner your heart may beat a bit faster. It’s the exposed brick and beamed ceiling, or may-be it’s the gas fireplace and the hand molded surround. Ah, it’s the lighting, that makes sense installed by George Sexton Lighting design. Head into the kitchen to see the concrete countertops, wood paneled appliances, a specially made hammered copper range hood over a 6 burner commercial...Open the door and take a moment. High ceilings, window seat, custom cabinets, custom fireplace surround. As you round the corner your heart may beat a bit faster. It’s the exposed brick and beamed ceiling, or may-be it’s the gas fireplace and the hand molded surround. Ah, it’s the lighting, that makes sense installed by George Sexton Lighting design. Head into the kitchen to see the concrete countertops, wood paneled appliances, a specially made hammered copper range hood over a 6 burner commercial stove with warming drawer, wine fridge, 2 sinks! Let the built in Bose speaker system (throughout the house and outside!) set the mood while you work your way around 2238 Sq. Ft of custom details. I don’t have enough room here to gush about, but I will make note of the on demand hot water, steam shower, soaking tub, roof top, parking space and walk through bathroom. You’ll have to come check that out on your own! Blocks from Lincoln Park, Eastern Market, 2 metros, the new Roost food hall and loads of Capitol Hill charm.
