This loft-style penthouse duplex at the former Christopher Columbus high school in the North End has Venetian plaster walls and lots of custom built-ins.
The penthouse units at Columbus Court on 20 Tileston St. were added to the top of the school when it was converted into 33 condos in 1998, and the exterior of the brick property is nicely landscaped behind wrought-iron fences and gates. The common hallways are wide and there's a daytime concierge on duty.
The two-bedroom Penthouse 3 condo — on the market for $1,399,000 — features a sunny, oak-floored double-height living room with skylights and a gas fireplace. In one corner is a built-in wine rack with a wine cooler.
The walls of the living area and an adjacent half bathroom were redone with shimmering Venetian plaster, and the room has surround sound.
Off the living room behind a wall of windows and glass doors sits a 40-foot private balcony with new wood decking and views out over the North End.
The recessed-lit kitchen, with Uba Tuba granite counters and a rust-colored granite island, has brown cabinets, and its LG stainless-steel appliances were replaced in 2004.
The master bedroom suite is also on this level and has glass doors that open out to the balcony. The oak-floored bedroom has a wall-length built-in with drawers and bookshelves. The suite has a good-sized walk-in closet and an en-suite beige ceramic tile bathroom with a tall linen built-in with drawers.
There's a stacked washer/dryer in a utility closet that also has the unit's gas-fired heating and central air systems.
Stairs lead up to a loft bedroom with walk-in closet that overlooks the living room. There's a second full ceramic tile bathroom, with a rather jarring stainless- steel sink and toilet. Also on this level is a home office with a built-in desk, a skylit alcove and a full-wall built-in with bookcases and drawers.
The unit comes with one deeded garage parking space as well as a 12-foot-by-5-foot private storage room in the basement.
