Add soaring 11-foot high ceilings and not one, but 2 oversized, south-facing windows to create a grand, versatile studio-loft expanse. But theres more: It also has a separate kitchen with several feet of counter space, plenty of cabinetry and full-sized appliances. Lots of kitchen cabinetry is just part of the storage in this home find a huge walk-in closet (that could be converted to an office or work-space), another wall of closets, and a separate storage unit that transfers with the apartment. Excellent for the downtown dweller or as a pied-a-terre or investment rental. Its a condo, so its easy to buy: co-purchase, guarantors all allowed.
