Introducing 39 River Street - a jewel box set in Southport Village. Upon entering the foyer, you will feel like you entered a NYC townhouse. This stunning home has undergone a renovation, including several noteworthy improvements. The ceiling was opened on the first floor to expose the fabulous wood joists which were refinished. All new molding & paneling were added throughout the home to provide architectural detail. The interior was painted in Farrow & Ball custom colors, and all flooring was replaced with either intricate herringbone white oak, black/white marble 12” sq tiles in a checkerboard pattern, or wall to wall carpeting. The Kitchen received an overhaul, with Kraftmade lacquered grey cabinets, Rohl gold faucets, new Bosch dishwasher, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and a Samsung black stainless steel gas stove. There is also a brand new wet bar with prep sink and wine chiller. The 2nd Floor Primary Suite was expanded by opening the 3 bedrooms and the existing closet to create an "enfilade" effect, with a dressing room and study room. New Kohler shower controls, toilet basin, and accessories were installed. The exterior of the property is also impressive, with a new stone front porch, a white picket fence and professional landscaping. The exterior was recently painted. With all these upgrades, this home is truly a remarkable find in Southport Village and a must-see for anyone looking for a move-in ready pied-a-terre with a luxurious feel.
