    What's special

    Hand-carved wood stairway banisters
    Come see this large, 4 bedroom home situated on a great block right between Wharton Square Park and all of the exciting new development taking place on Washington Ave. The current footprint would allow you expand the kitchen while still retaining large separate living and dining rooms. By remodeling the 2nd floor you could develop it into a very spacious 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home... or even add a 3rd story to maximize value. The home already has the duct work for the central heat, so it could easily be converted over to an HVAC system to provide central air as well. There is also plenty of opportunity to retain a ton of the home's historic charm. The first floor features two gorgeous fireplaces and mantels that are in excellent condition. The hand-carved wood stairway banisters are also in great condition, as well as the original armoire in the primary bedroom. The property is currently vacant and can be seen on short notice.
