About this home
Do NOT miss this opportunity to buy one of the largest units in this historically and architecturally significant grandiose mansion! The price per square foot on this bi-level parlor-level home with enormous bedrooms will make you do a double take. While there are recent updates like new flooring in the main living area, there are many ways to upgrade and make this home your own and build equity at the same time. With two parking spaces, expansive common area outside, ample storage, high ceilings and generous dimensions, this may be a home like you've never encountered! The bedroom on the main level features an en-suite bathroom, double closets as well a bow window with a window seat and an original terrazzo marble floor. Lower level has high ceilings, another huge bedroom, storage and utility room. Situated between the Savin Hill and JFK/UMass T stops. Showings start at open houses on Saturday and Sunday both from 2:00 to 3:30. No appointments needed. Masks will be required for entry.
