Built in 1912, the historic Piedmont Court is the West Side's Crown Jewel for its exquisite Moorish architecture, charm, community, and conveniences. This cozy, unique unit features two separate rooms across the hall with their own entrances, offering the creative, potential opportunity to carve out 2 bedrooms with a shared kitchen and bathroom. Overlooking the sunny courtyard's bubbling fountain to the east, the sweet kitchen has been downsized to offer fewer/mini appliances, while opportunity abounds to design/remodel your own cheffing masterpiece. The living area overlooks the pretty west garden and features a murphy bed to opt for functional space. Dues include all utilities except phone and property taxes. Who needs a car?
