157 Whitney Street # FL 3RD, Hartford, CT 06105

Welcome to the Penthouse Apartment on Whitney. You have never seen a third-floor apartment in a multi-family house like this. All the stops were pulled out to make this truly an executive and penthouse style apartment. Everything in the apartment is new, professionally done, with lots of custom extras. A ton of thought and energy were put in to make this an incredibly special space. The property is currently undergoing an entire exterior historic restoration. This exterior project has been ongoing for 5 months and we have painstakingly stripped all the paint from the house and trim. This light yellow beauty will be on one of the biggest historic renovations in the neighborhood and unheard of for a three-family house. Walking into the apartment you will notice an open living room with a custom wrought iron railing that is one of the focal points of this room. The entire apartment has refinished original fur hardwood floors. The living room is big enough for a sectional couch and large tv. There are 2 bedrooms right off the living room. There is a custom stained glass window between the bedroom & living room that gives privacy and allows natural light in. There is also a rare third floor laundry closet off the living room with stackable high efficiency front loading units. The front bedroom is large enough to fit a king bed. There are three large Victorian windows that drench this space in natural light. There are 2 closets in the front bedroom (overall tremendous amount of closet space in the apartment). The second bedroom is also above average size with a walk-in closet and a half bath attached. The apartment has 1 full bath and 1 half bath, which is also unique. In the full bathroom you will notice custom glass subway tiled shower and travertine floor, with a custom vanity with a granite finish and porcelain fixtures. The shower is oversized with a large niche for your soap and shampoos. One of the best parts of the apartment is the granite custom ?L? kitchen with marble backsplash, wine rack, crown molding, light rails, and new high-end stainless steel appliances. However, the real show stopper is the third floor deck off the kitchen. Tremendous natural light with the deck facing west and a great spot to soak in the sun. It?s like you are perched up in a nest overlooking the back of Whitney and Oxford street. Lastly, there is a full walk in closet that is almost big enough for another room (no windows though). It?s great for a walk-in closet or pantry, or just extra storage space. The owners put in high efficiency natural gas heat (92%+ efficient) to help keep the heating bills reasonable. The location is perfect with Elizabeth park only 2 blocks away (enjoy their free concert series in the summer) an UConn law school walking distance. Mo?s breakfast is the best in Hartford county and a 5 minute walk. Great bars and restaurants walking distance away. West Hartford line is also two blocks away on Fern. You are 5 minutes to West Hartford Center/Blue Back Square. Please keep in mind we a strict application process that focuses heavily on good credit. There is also a background check, employment and income verification. Tenant pays for heat (gas), hot water (gas), and electricity. Owner pays for snow removal, lawn care, water. Great tenants on the first and second floor already. Two off street parking spots available. In the future, a garage spot will be available. One month security with a strong application. Pets considered on a case by case basis. Please don?t hesitate with any questions or to setup a showing. Thanks for considering this apartment for your next home. Thanks, Anthony Tenant responsible for heat (gas), Hot water (gas), and electricity.
