1951 W 26th Street 514

In the heart of it all! Stunningly renovated two-story penthouse in the Carroll Avenue wing of Market Square's historic Fries & Schuele Building. Every restaurant and club on West 25th St. is literally right outside the door - along with the Westside Market and all of Ohio City! Duck Island or Hingetown are a few blocks away, in either direction. Tremont and Downtown are barely a mile away. Everything's within walking distance, with all kinds of great stops along the way. The unit has a huge great room with floor to ceiling windows and a balcony overlooking the Fries & Schuele courtyard. Both the great room and master bedroom have expansive views of Ohio City. The master has a large, well-designed walk-in closet with custom cabinetry. A large second bedroom doubles as a perfect den or office, with a roomy closet the whole width of the room, also fitted with custom cabinets. The kitchen is exceptional. High-style inlaid wooden cabinets are complemented by stunning black granite counters, and a spectacular metal backsplash. It's a well-conceived space, with an entertaining/bar area and plenty of cabinets to one side, and a breakfast bar on the other. The second floor has a large family room with its own wet bar, and a beer/wine refrigerator set in a full wall of cabinetry. The upstairs living space opens onto what's designed to be one of the prime outdoor spaces in the neighborhood: a two-level deck - the lower portion overlooking all of Ohio City, all the way to the lake, and the upper portion with a panoramic view over Market Square and the entire Downtown skyline. The building's roof has just been completely replaced, with the decking and stairway temporarily removed. The new owner can make the design their own for reinstalling them. A full-size washer & dryer are ensuite. One garage space and a secure storage area are included. First Opens, Saturday, 4/18, 11:30-1:30 and Sunday, 4/19, 1-3.
