About this home
Come see this sophisticated new construction with a private rooftop retreat at 609 E. Locust Avenue. This home offers a rare full 10-year property TAX ABATEMENT THAT DOES NOT SCALE DOWN EACH YEAR! Reimagined for elevated city living, this exceptional new construction offers approximately 3,700 square feet across four finished levels, 4 bedrooms, and 3.5 designer baths — crowned by a show-stopping private rooftop deck with panoramic tree-line views.
A dramatic brick-and-metal façade opens to a main level with 10-foot ceilings, waterproof engineered hardwood floors, and in-ceiling speakers throughout a flawless open-concept layout. The sun-filled living and dining space flows into a chef-caliber kitchen with custom two-tone cabinetry, an oversized quartz waterfall island, and premium stainless-steel appliances — plus a convenient main-level half bath and a rear slider leading out to a private, fenced-in backyard.
The second floor (9-foot ceilings, waterproof engineered hardwood floors throughout) offers two spacious bedrooms with large walk-in closets — including one en-suite full bath in the rear bedroom — plus a second full hall bath for the additional bedroom.
The third floor is dedicated entirely to the owners' retreat: 9-foot ceilings and engineered hardwood floors lead to a massive primary suite, a flexible rear room perfect as a 4th bedroom, home office, or guest space, and a built-in hallway beverage center. The spa-inspired primary bath delivers a double-sink quartz vanity, a deep freestanding soaking tub, and an oversized glass shower with a rain shower head, all complemented by a private water closet.
The fully finished lower level adds a spacious rec room with a dedicated home theater setup — complete with in-ceiling surround sound — plus a laundry area with washer/dryer, ideal for movie nights, a gym, or extra lounge space.
Topping it all off is the full private rooftop deck with panoramic tree-line views — the perfect spot to unwind or entertain. Additional highlights include dual-zone HVAC, an interior fire sprinkler system, and Bluetooth-enabled speaker light fans in every full bathroom.
Thoughtfully designed and move-in ready, this is a rare new-construction offering for the discerning buyer, with a focus on style and affordability.
