STYLE, SPACE, AND SAVINGS! The total package! Swanky large true 1 bedroom unit with luxury upgrades, huge windows, and huge property tax savings! The historic 1938 Brown Building is located in the center of Downtown, and is the ONLY condo building that enjoys the huge property tax discounts the Historic Exemption delivers. Save $THOUSANDS$! With a homestead exemption it's up to a 75% discount! Even without a homestead, it's still 30-35% off of taxes! For example, I estimate that the 2025 tax with a homestead exemption should be under $1,800 for the whole year! The building and the unit have a lot of vintage charm from the period details, including terrazzo floors, concrete ceilings and walls, brick, marble, and stone, but also all the modern comforts and systems. #A2 comes beautifully updated with matching granite counters in kitchen and bath, subway tile kitchen backsplash, and new stainless appliances. Great storage in this unit with 2 closets in the bedroom plus a flexible wide entry hallway that can be used for storage or for desk space. Featuring tall exposed concrete ceilings plus 4 huge fully operable windows that infuse the space with natural light. Peaceful & quiet inside with no street noise when you open the windows. Luminous bedroom with enough space for a king-sized bed plus a lovely ensuite bath with an updated granite vanity, tasteful finishes, and a tile shower/tub. 1 large, reserved parking space in attached garage and more spaces are available if needed. Quiet corner of downtown 1 block from Congress Ave, 2 blocks from 6th St, and 3 blocks to the Capitol. Amenities include a roof deck and gym, as well as a grand historic lobby, secure double-gated fob access at all entry points, call box for easy guest/delivery access, 3 modern elevators, vending machines, and a doggie station across the street. Google Webpass high speed internet. HOA Fees incl everything but electric and internet. Pet-friendly building. Warrantable. Great for investors, too!
