Victorian charmer on smaller lot with big potential! This home has been rewired with 200 amp service and new plumbing at time of conversion in 1998 to a single family from a 2flat. The layout was reorganized and the basement load was reinforced with steel posts and beams under the direction of a structural engineer and fully permitted. The first fl with 10' ceilings has a comfy living room with a period window. Transition into the dining room with original tin ceilings, custom built-ins, an arched opening to the kitchen complete with custom cabinets with lots of great details, counter seating area and good appliances. A powder room with pocket door was added for convenience along with generous walk-in pantry and coat closet. The second floor has two bedrooms and large walk-in closet that was formerly small nursery. Spacious hall bath with jetted tub and and standing shower. The 3rd floor is accessed only from the rear exterior staircase that runs from the basement to the 3rd level. This level does not have new wiring. It is the perfect place to add an owners suite - currently consists of one finished room, skylight and space for a bath. The potential to enclose the stair case and incorporate functional space on all 3 levels is a great way to add value The basement has been waterproofed and insulated with many updated mechanicals. The back yard has a nice area for a garden and a large deck for entertaining. The one car garage has a second door for easy access from yard. This is a rare opportunity in this very hot area. Zoned RT-4.
