Property Description
Glorious 3 bedroom, 2.1 bath, newly rehabbed, 1,811 sq. ft. condo in a gated, historically significant pre-war Garden Court Condominiums built in the 1920's in University City. Tranquil courtyard with fountain, koi pond, shade trees, seating areas, and lush gardens. Bike storage is tucked away in one corner. Continue into the marble foyer, and take the elevator to this 4th floor home. The door opens into a light filled and airy huge living room with original moldings, book cases, and 3 windows overlooking the courtyard. Opposite you'll find a dining room ready for a seated Thanksgiving dinner for many guests. A recently rehabbed kitchen offers marble countertops, a dishwasher, and stunning range hood. Two bedrooms are quite large and the 3rd is smaller ? just right for an office or petite guest room. 2 beautiful full baths with 1920's original marble, Vitrolite glass walls, and a powder room with laundry. Freshly painted, gorgeous floors refinished throughout, and many little tasks completed so it is move-in ready. Original moldings, decorative fireplace, and stained glass windows add character not found in today's new construction. Then imagine yourself as Greta Garbo or Douglas Fairbanks when you take a dip in the glamorous tiled swimming pool in the lower level. You'll also discover dressing rooms, an exercise room, library, and community room. The 2016 monthly assessment includes heat, hot water, elevator & building maintenance, all amenities, exterior & grounds maintenance, trash & recycling, master insurance, and management, plus an ongoing property improvement assessment which continues monthly until 2027. The latest Association improvement project is just starting. All rear windows throughout the complex are being assessed for maintenance, repairs and painting. A truly elegant, care-free lifestyle.
