Storybook duplex on an extra-deep lot, ready for its next chapter.

Inside, you’ll find sun-filled living and dining rooms with coved ceilings, arched doorways, and original wood trim, flowing into vintage kitchens that are surprisingly generous in workspace and storage. The bedrooms are quietly set back off a central hallway with hardwood floors, and the hall bath features classic tile and period details. Below the main level, an extensive basement/lower level runs the depth of the building, owner's unit has an additional bedroom, basement level also has laundry area, storage, and hobby space, with potential to re-imagine as workshop or bonus areas.
