Discover the perfect blend of modern living and urban convenience in this 4BD/3.5 BA Southwest Waterfront townhouse, with garage parking, just steps away from the vibrant Wharf. This versatile 3-story gem offers a multitude of living spaces, making it a unique find in the heart of the city. Upon entering your home through the covered entryway, you can enjoy the convenience of staying comfortable and dry, no matter the weather outside. Step inside to find you're greeted by a grand foyer that's not only spacious but also includes two large closets, providing ample storage solutions for your everyday needs. The ground level offers a multi-functional space that adapts to your lifestyle. Use it as a fourth bedroom, a home office for remote work, a cozy family room or any other purpose that suits your needs. From this space, step outside and discover a fantastic screened porch, complete with a ceiling fan and dimmable recessed lighting—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Beyond, a large south-facing back patio with elegant flagstone pavers invites you to soak up the sun. For added convenience, there's a full bathroom on the ground floor, making it easy for guests or family members to freshen up without having to go upstairs. Additionally, the side-by-side washer and dryer, accompanied by additional storage space, ensures that laundry day is a breeze. This ground floor offers a space that seamlessly combines practicality with luxury, ensuring your daily life is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. We'd like to note that on the ground floor, you'll notice a hatch leading to an unfinished basement/crawlspace with headroom. There's potential to excavate and expand this space, but we recommend consulting a comprehensive contracting company to assess its feasibility and usability. As you head upstairs to the second floor, you will notice that the kitchen has been tastefully updated and open, offering a breakfast bar, quartz counters, and abundant storage and counter space. Custom built-ins in the living room introduce a touch of sophistication, while the extended balcony off the living room provides a peaceful spot to unwind. The oversized dining room, complete with its own balcony, offers a perfect setting for hosting, and custom closet additions throughout the space ensure organized storage solutions. To top it off, a dedicated wine fridge enhances your entertainment possibilities. Additionally, for your added convenience, there is a half bathroom readily accessible. As you reach the top floor, you'll find a private retreat that caters to your comfort and relaxation. The primary suite is spacious and features double closets, a ceiling light/fan fixture and a spa-like bathroom with a soothing soaking tub and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms, and a full bathroom, on this level offer versatility, making it an ideal space for family members or guests.
