Read the full listing description
In the heart of downtown Stamford stands the majestic Buckingham, a luxurious boutique-like 100 unit condominium. Just beyond the gracious lobby where owners and guests are greeted by an attentive doorman awaits this home-sweet-home. As part of a 2010 renovation of the first floor, L8, unlike most units in the building, has central air. This home also had a major redo in 2019, which includes all new rich hardwood floors, cozy wall-to-wall carpeting in the bedrooms, a sparkling new kitchen including quartz counters and matching backsplash, stainless steel appliances and handsome cabinetry. Updated light fixtures, custom closets galore, as well as a tray ceiling in the living area that resembles a large skylight, all add distinction. In 2023 new windows and an HVAC system were added. A crucial bonus is the set of adjacent parking spaces in the indoor garage, an elevator ride away. The Buckingham boasts some very attractive amenities, including an indoor community room, a cheerful library, an active health center with sauna, in-ground pool, and an outdoor community terrace. Guest parking and a doorman add a personalized experience and an element of comfort. A block or two from downtown Stamford, a city vibrant in arts, music and culture. Local merchants, eateries, shopping mall, the beach, train and local highways are all within easy reach.
