If you've dreamed of living in a beautifully renovated home with high end finishes and modern design but the cash requirement was holding you back, this home is for you! The current owner spent over $100,000 reimagining this 3BR/2BA brick row home, and it shows! The exquisite, moody blue exterior makes a lasting impression on sight!

This is a perfect entertaining space! Upstairs, the primary bedroom is GORGEOUS and also spacious; your king-sized bed will fit nicely here!
