Property Description
For the buyer looking for a home with history and character, 246 Fitzwater St #10 is a bright and airy 2 bed, 2 bath, 1,290 sqft unit located in a former Queen Village school turned condo building offering secure parking, an elevator, and placement in the Meredith School catchment. The building stands prominently on a corner lot, showcasing a brick facade with ornate details and an elaborate entry door. Inside unit #10, you’re welcomed by a foyer with a coat closet. Beautifully aged hardwood floors lead to the open main living space, framed by soaring 14′ ceilings. The dining area can hold a table for 8+, while the kitchen is fitted with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (including a dishwasher and gas stove), a tile backsplash, and a laundry closet with built-in shelving. Towering 10′ windows fill the living room with natural light where a ceiling fan helps with airflow, and an alcove provides a perfect nook for an entertainment center. Off the entry foyer is the primary bedroom suite boasting a custom closet and an updated Jack-and-Jill bathroom. On the other side of the unit is a secondary suite with an attached full bathroom. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans and more tall windows. Additional highlights include 2 storage attics, a newer HVAC system installed in 03/2022 (with 4 years of free service from SILA), and a water heater recently installed in 06/2021. This pet-friendly building has reasonable condo fees that include water and sewer, a secure basement storage space, professional building management, common area maintenance and cleaning, and trash pick-up. The owner is responsible for gas and electric. 246 Fitzwater St #10 is a fantastic unit with an equally fantastic Queen Village location, earning a Walk Score of 99!
