The powder room, adjacent to the kitchen, has been decorated with a white-stained wide plank floor tile and white vanity, and behind sliding doors includes a full-size washer/dryer.

On the townhouse's top floor, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, another extra large walk-in storage closet and a full bath. The oversized master bedroom, which has the same gorgeous windows as the living room directly below, also features an original decorative fireplace mantle, plenty of closet space and the aforementioned third bedroom/home office, which can be accessed from the hallway as well.
