This 2-family home offers the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern convenience. The ground floor features a spacious one-bedroom unit with a separate entrance and direct access to the backyardideal as an in-law suite or income-producing rental. Above, the main entrance leads to the parlor floor and two additional levels with ample space, as well as the potential to expand one more floor.
