About this home
Set on a prominent corner lot in a truly special neighborhood, this charming Victorian has been held by the same family for generations-an increasingly rare find. Currently configured as three units, the property offers immediate scale and long-term upside for the right buyer with vision. The building's soul remains intact. Original ornate woodwork and period details still grace the interior, offering a strong foundation to restore and elevate the home's historic character. The rooms are generously sized, providing flexible layouts that can be reimagined to meet today's market demands-whether as refined rental units, luxury conversions, or a thoughtful blend of both. A full basement adds valuable utility and potential, while the detached two-car garage enhances convenience and future appeal. The corner lot setting not only increases light and presence but also strengthens long-term value in an already spectacular neighborhood. Offered AS-IS, presenting a rare opportunity to restore craftsmanship, honor its history, and unlock future potential....
