This brick Colonial Revival offers approximately 5,650 square feet. 9 bedrooms,3 full baths, 1 half bath, the kind of architectural character that is hard to find at this scale. Its columned porch, dormers, and period details hint at what this home could be again with the right vision and investment.A recent fire in the third-floor apartment caused substantial damage to that level and the property requires repairs. Priced to reflect its condition, this is a rare opportunity for a buyer ready to bring this remarkable Ghent home back to its former glory!
