This massive 3400 square foot home has a story to tell! From 1915-1969 this property was known as Fafinski's Grocery located right on the corner of Townsend and Doughty Streets. The room the store once held is now a 20x37 living room with a wood burning stone fireplace. Also on the first floor is the kitchen with new counter and cabinets, full bathroom with 2 entrances and a large dining room. Upstairs has newer vinyl windows, hardwood floors and was freshly painted. The 3 bedrooms are on the 2nd floor as well as another full bathroom. There are also 3 other rooms upstairs that look like they could have been, at one time, a functioning apartment. Bring your imagination to make more bedrooms upstairs or even downstairs if you need a first floor bedroom. This home also comes with a nice fenced in back yard (50x141) and a 2 car garage with a new metal roof. Possibilities are endless here at 250 Townsend!
