The tree-lined blocks of historic Queen Village lead to 234 Monroe St #A. This unique, bi-level condo offers 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, a huge private yard, and distinctive character throughout. A picturesque red brick facade with black accents greets you at the front of the building, where a gated breezeway leads to a rear entrance. Inside the unit, you're welcomed by a foyer with space for shoes, jackets, and keys. Parquet floors and an exposed brick wall extend down the main hall that overlooks the airy 2-story living room on the lower level. There's plenty of space here to create a cozy den, along with a nook for work or hobbies. Back on the main level, the sunlit kitchen is fitted with custom shaker-style cabinetry, granite counters, a tile backsplash, and space for a dining table. A pair of sliding doors open to an expansive rear patio area that acts as an escape from the city's hustle. This private outdoor space is perfect for hosting barbecues, dining al fresco, and relaxing outside all spring and summer. At the other end of the unit, there's a secondary bedroom, ideal for a nursery, office, or fitness space, and a full bathroom, with a glass-enclosed shower, off the hall. A large primary bedroom with an exposed brick wall, tall windows, and double closets complete the home. 234 Monroe St's fantastic Queen Village location earns a Walk Score of 97! Vibrant South St is less than two blocks away, lined with an eclectic mix of popular restaurants, shops, and entertainment, while nearby Head House Square has a farmer's market and community events.
