The substantial house features 6+++bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, original detail and a full basement with excellent head-height. The first floor features a kitchen and living room and a rear door that leads to a large fenced-in, private outdoor space. The second floor features two bedrooms, an office as well as a full bath. The third floor features a full bath and three bedrooms. The fourth floor features two bedrooms and two bonus rooms. This property is a blank canvas for the buyer craving a ownership of a significant brick building in the most coveted location in town, on a dead-end private way with preferred parking (see broker).
