This 16' wide by 55' deep house on a 73' deep lot is 1830 sq ft with the finished basement and a great opportunity to have an expansive living level in an extensively renovated two-story row house.

The open living level features 10' ceilings, original pine floors, exposed brick, and the original wooden staircase leading to the second floor. The living area has room for a comfortable seating area; adjacent to the stairs is room for a dinner party. The large kitchen features appliances and cabinetry on both walls offering plenty of counter space and storage. Beyond the kitchen is a really nice flex space that could be used as an additional seating area, office, breakfast area, or add closets and a bike rack. This room has a pair of sliders that opens to a large outdoor space with a raised bed that is ready for planting grass, planting a garden, or accommodating a deck. Downstairs is a fully finished basement that was lowered 18' to create an 8' ceiling height.
