210 St George St, #44

Description

In a city known for its fascinating history and rich array of architectural gems, the Lyon Building stands out as the signature downtown address to call home if life in an intimate and supremely private community of 18 residential condominiums is what beckons you. A huge rooftop deck overlooks the city, the Intracoastal and you can even see the ocean from this breezy perch where residents gather for their monthly social. Presiding from its 4th floor location, #44 would be equally at home in any of your favorite cities around the world. Impeccably appointed down to the smallest detail, the owners have loved creating this treetop nest and their time here spent with friends and neighbors in this most enviable lifestyle. Offered fully furnished if you want instant gratification. Take the elevator to the top floor and prepare to be delighted. Form and function seamlessly work together so that every space is beautiful and purposeful. As you enter, the splendid kitchen is on your right, and it could regale you for hours about memorable meals and parties that were inspired here. A work of art in itself, please pause and take in the design, abundance of cabinetry and prep space and the simple, timeless elegance of the space. 1/2 bath is tucked behind the front door and a micro-office with its own custom cabinets is across from a laundry closet. Look closely and you'll spot all the additional storage lining both sides. Natural morning light softly illuminates the living room while the window seat offers front row viewing of the goings on at the city plaza. It's the spot for reading on rainy days and watching the holiday lights twinkle when the season starts in late November. In the afternoons, the reflection of the setting sun on the rooftop across the street turns the interior a soft shade of gold. A wall of custom cabinetry can be used to house your media equipment and display your smaller art pieces. A generous room with hand-stenciled walls - you can arrange it in several ways to suit your own style. En-suite, the large bedroom is a peaceful retreat at the day's end. Custom closet shares the wall with another window seat that looks out to various church spires around the plaza. Additional outfitted closet space is behind the door. Bathroom offers a walk-in shower and an oversized vanity for more welcome storage. Stone tile and high ceilings run throughout the condo and both sets of windows have custom shades so you can sleep in and greet the sun on your own schedule. Meet your neighbors in the lobbies on each floor, riding the elevator, checking the centralized mailbox or better still - on the rooftop deck where herb gardens thrive in the sunlight and evening cocktails are a must. If you're an early bird, bring your coffee and greet the sun as it rises over the ocean, making the Bridge of Lion sparkle in the morning light. 4th of July is not to be missed - there is no better place to watch the fireworks as the night sky turns into a multitude of colors. Fancy some live music but don't want to leave home? Enjoy the summer season of Concerts in the Plaza where every Thursday evening from Memorial Day to Labor Day, there's a different band playing. Step out of the Lyon Building and the menu of downtown offerings spread out in all directions. Culinary and cultural opportunities are everywhere and all in walking distance if you have 5 - 10 minutes to get there! Art events, live music of all genres, nearby festivals at Francis Field, cultural and educational programs at Flagler College, a host of historic organizations waiting to share their passions with you, an outstanding spa when you need pampering, an esplanade along the Intracoastal Waterway for scenic beauty and daily walks, some of the finest buildings dating back over several centuries - the list goes on. The Lyon Building has 2 secured entrances - the main one on St George St and the second on King St. Being in the very heart of the city and inside the Historic District, there is no on-site parking. A loading zone and street spaces allow for getting packages and groceries inside. The owners of #44 have a transferable leased parking spot 2 blocks away - we're happy to share parking tips with you. If you have arrived at the "less is more" stage in life or you love the idea of "lock and leave" when the traveling bug bites or if you have always wanted to be in the thick of things while your car gathers dust, you have come to the right place. Minimum rental period is 30 days. Welcome - we think you are going to love Lyon living....
