    What's special

    Rarely is there an opportunity to restore a single family home with such grand presence. This corner mansard victorian retains many of the original details including pine floors, 2 marble mantels and 1 decorative brick mantel, double crown molding, high ceilings, ceiling medallion, double door for the double parlor, beautiful wooden staircase, and generously sized windows. There is a small private ally between the house and the garage. The home has 3 full bathrooms, 2 decks, and a roof deck with panoramic views. Nestled amongst a set of row-houses, steps from Central Square, and a 2- car garage. Peel back the layers of history and enjoy such a unique opportunity.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
