Want to live like the upper class did in the 20's and 30's, then buy a unit at Undercliffs Terrace and imagine the butlers serving lunch before your horse and buggy brings you back to the city. This building which is now 19 condos has lots of tidbits that give you a sense of the history, from the dumbwaiter in the back hall and in this unit, the complete butler's pantry still being used for storage. This immense condo has beautiful hardwood floors and moldings that give it character. A large living area with a wide opening to the dining room. The oversized hall that was used as a library from the former owner. A multi-purpose room as large as the living room to be used as the primary bedroom, study, tv room, you tell me. Efficient kitchen, two bedrooms, one leads to a great three-season porch and the piece de resistance, the private deck and fairy garden with its own cabin for gardening supplies or tea parties. All with two parking spaces, two storage units and an owners terraced area.
