About this home

Experience the best of The Betsy Ross in this exquisite 1-bedroom, 1-bath home that solves every vintage building hurdle. While this 1928 Colonial Revival is celebrated for its brick facade and period elegance, this specific unit offers a level of independence typically reserved for modern townhomes. ?Unique to this residence is a private secondary entrance via the alley, allowing you to drive right up and enter directly—a game-changer for moving day, grocery runs, or bike storage. This private doorway opens to a serene, secluded common garden patio, rarely used by others. It provides a tranquil outdoor escape and a perfect canvas for the urban gardener to cultivate a lush container garden or a quiet herbal retreat just steps from your door. ?Inside, this NE corner unit shines with the building’s signature circular floor plan and original hardwood floors that create an expansive, airy feel. Unlike other units where laundry requires a trip to the lower level, this home features its own in-unit washer/dryer combo for ultimate convenience. The Betsy Ross is known for its thoughtfully maintained with classic moldings and arched doorways. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street with a 94 Walk Score, just blocks from PCC, Trader Joe’s, and the vibrant Pike/Pine corridor, and a 15-minute walk to the light rail. Common area cleaning, groundskeeping, and window washing are all included. This boutique gem offers the soul of 1920s architecture with unparalleled 21st-century ease.
