Description

Welcome to The Provident Building! Updated throughout the years to maintain its historical integrity while providing the perfect touch of modern comforts. The main floor has 18 ft ceilings, polished stone flooring, period lighting and fans, a full bar with 12 taps, 2 half bathrooms, and a full kitchen. The access to the newer, stamped concrete patio is also on the main floor. The original bank vault is the centerpiece of this magnificent space! Step into the vault and you are greeted with a floor to ceiling wine rack with a library ladder and a spiral staircase that leads to the basement speakeasy. The luxurious speakeasy has stone tile flooring and a 2nd bar with a sink. This space is perfect for winding down with a craft cocktail after a long day of work. The utility room, built in storage shelving and work bench, and walk in cooler are also located in the basement. The upstairs apartment has original glass ball lighting and 10ft ceilings that are partially covered in original stamped tin. A brand-new kitchen with high-end stainless-steel appliances was installed last year. Quartz countertop by the sink, and butcher block counter tops by the stove. Brand new Brazilian Acacia hardwood flooring and new carpet in the bedroom. A 2nd vault, being used as the bedroom's walk-in closet, has floor to ceiling hangers and shelving. The apartment is completed by an updated huge shower room and vanity, a separate toilet room with matching Brazilian hardwoods, and washer and dryer utility room with original honeycomb tile. The provident had a 50 year roof installed 3 years ago, tuck pointing done 4 years ago, modern HVAC (2 units), updated wiring, new or restored flooring throughout, modern copper/PVC plumbing, and all 3, 15 ft. high, front and corner windows on the main floor have been replaced within the last year as well! Don't miss your opportunity to own a piece of St. Joseph's history!
