Some buildings are constructed. This one was crafted. Built in 1881, this magnificent stone landmark has watched over Saint John Harbour for nearly 150 years. Today, behind its historic façade, Unit 203 offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of that story. The moment you step inside, your eyes are drawn upward. 17-foot ceilings. Towering 12-foot arched windows. Two majestic chandeliers suspended above a light-filled great room. Beyond the glass, ships drift through the harbour, sunsets paint the sky, and fireworks sparkle over the water. This unique 1.5-storey waterfront loft blends old-world character with modern sophistication. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living space was designed for entertaining, whether you're hosting friends for dinner or enjoying a quiet evening overlooking the Bay. Solid birch floors flow throughout the home, while a striking iron staircase leads to the upper-level primary retreat. Here you'll find a luxurious 5-piece ensuite, walk-in closet, and the kind of atmosphere usually reserved for boutique hotels. A second bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests, or a home office.. What makes this home truly special extends beyond the suite itself. Original stonework. Ornate moldings. A grand winding staircase. Elevator access. Heated underground parking. All tucked within a secure and exclusive building where heritage architecture has been carefully preserved. The recently updated heating system features hot water radiators with smart home control valves, allowing personalized comfort. Step outside and discover why Uptown Saint John continues to capture hearts. Restaurants, cafés, galleries, theatres, festivals, patios, and the waterfront boardwalk are all just steps away. Condo fees include heat, water, sewage, underground parking, and building maintenance. You can buy square footage anywhere. But history, character, waterfront views, and a front-row seat to the soul of Saint John...those opportunities are rare. (id:41202)
