Welcome to Garden Unit 1 at 256 Putnam Avenue — our exclusive residence and a rare opportunity to own the only duplex in the building with two interior floors within a brand-new boutique 4-unit townhouse conversion. This stunning 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home delivers true townhouse-style living with exceptional privacy, very low taxes, and immediate closings available. The building is already 50% sold.
Spanning over 2,000 square feet of combined interior and exterior space, this one-of-a-kind residence features its own private entrance, completely separate from the other three units — a rare luxury in boutique condominium living.
The home features two distinct outdoor spaces:
• Private, sun-filled Southern facing backyard, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying morning coffee
• Front yard entrance with a built-in garden bed, ideal for gardening lovers and enhancing curb appeal and true townhouse-style living
The residence offers flexible layout options with two floorplan configurations for the primary bedroom, allowing for designs with or without a closet to suit different lifestyle needs.
Designed for modern living, the home spans the full width of the building and is filled with natural light. Interior features include high ceilings, oversized windows, and wide-plank hardwood floors throughout.
The chef’s kitchen is beautifully appointed with premium GE appliances, custom European cabinetry, quartz countertops, and refined finishes.
The spa-inspired bathrooms feature heating functionality in both bathrooms so you’ll be cozy year-round. The secondary bathroom offers a luxurious soaking bathtub, while the primary bathroom is outfitted with a sleek stand-up rainfall shower — creating a true spa-like retreat.
The huge lower-level recreational room is a major value-add, offering incredible flexibility as a movie theater, home gym, media lounge, home office, or guest space.
