Welcome to the penthouse apartment at 205 College Ave, a distinctive retreat of tranquility nestled in the bustling mixed use Collegetown Neighborhood, just at the doorstep of Cornell University. This haven isn't just another living space; it's a testament to meticulous design and craftsmanship, where every detail is thoughtfully curated to prioritize comfort and peace of mind.

Crafted by its former resident and owner, this urban oasis embodies a vision of modernity and convenience while ensuring a peaceful night's rest amidst the neighborhood's energy. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by an ambiance that seamlessly combines urban chic with serene living.

Quality materials are at the forefront of the apartment's design. A custom Oak staircase, skillfully crafted by local artisans, from local Oak, welcomes you into the space, merging with glass to infuse the atrium with natural light and urban sophistication. Within this staircase, built-in shoe storage spaces allow you to neatly store your shoes hidden from sight, adding to the apartment's functionality and organization.Throughout the apartment, polished granite tile flooring not only adds a touch of luxury but also reflects and amplifies both natural and artificial light, enhancing the overall brightness of the space.

Skylights strategically placed in the atrium and main bedroom invite sunlight to dance across the walls, infusing every corner with warmth and brightness. Abundant lighting fixtures, including dimmable options, offer versatility and ambiance, allowing you to tailor the lighting to suit any mood or occasion.

In the kitchen, stainless steel appliances, gas burner stove, double door fridge and ample cabinet space cater to culinary enthusiasts, while the in-unit washer and dryer add convenience to daily routines. Ample storage, including real wood doors for added sound-blocking, ensures a clutter-free living environment.

The heat is a radiant system, designed to keep you cozy during the cooler months, providing efficient warmth at a low cost, ensuring comfort without compromise. In the summer, a dual inverter air conditioner helps keep the apartment cool.

But perhaps most impressive is the commitment to soundproofing. From Quietrock-lined walls to open-cell spray foam insulation, to rockwool sound insulation, to rubber sound blocking members under the granite floor and sound-deadening electrical outlets, every measure has been taken to minimize noise intrusion. The porch design in the larger bedroom not only effectively blocks street noise but also offers picturesque views of the valley, allowing natural light to flood into the space. Additionally, the apartment features sturdy construction with engineered LVL joists and double-layered QuietRock in the apartments below, ensuring a more tranquil living experience for all residents
