About this home

A grand Victorian with a storied past, this large historic home is ready for someone with vision to restore it to its former glory. Once a true staple of this iconic neighborhood, with almost 3,000 square feet, the property has served as a single-family residence and previously as a multiplex, offering flexibility and opportunity. Featuring 6 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this is a substantial project with the potential for an equally substantial reward. Investors and restoration enthusiasts alike will appreciate the scale, character, and possibilities this property presents. Sold AS IS.
