Property Description
Historic Greek Revival Residence at National Park Seminary – Unit #203 Like a fine wine, the transformation of a historic school gymnasium into a residence is an art, where timeless character meets modern luxury. Unit #203 in ”The Gymnasium” at National Park Seminary is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece that offers both history and innovation. This stunning Greek Revival building was once the site of the National Park Seminary, a former girls’ finishing school, where students once dreamed of dances and romances. Today, the spirit of that era lives on through soaring windows that flood the space with natural light, framing a breathtaking view over three terraced levels. In this unique residence, echoes of the past remain. The third-level loft, with its original gymnasium floor, recalls the sounds of basketball games played a century ago. Shelving along the loft’s perimeter, once used for gym suits and sneakers, now elegantly displays books and treasures from the owner’s travels. A library ladder, reminiscent of school days, provides both function and charm, reaching high shelves while sliding unobtrusively when not in use. The home’s architectural genius is evident in the harmonious blend of old-world charm and modern design. From the sleek white kitchen with a marble waterfall island to the sparkling white tiled bathrooms, the space has been meticulously crafted to offer every luxury. The second-level bedroom tier is open to the grand space below, with a glass half-wall providing a gallery view and letting in even more light. This residence is not a condo, nor is it just a historic home. It’s an architectural work of art, perfectly suited for those who seek something extraordinary – a blend of history, design, and cutting-edge functionality. If you appreciate distinctive style and unparalleled craftsmanship, this is your opportunity. This is the one. and finishes.a0; *This is not old; this is not new, it is not a condo (except as a form of ownership). This is a stand-alone work of architectural design art that is only for the most discerning buyer. You know who you are. No cookie-cutter-condo will satisfy your needs. This is the one!
