This sun-filled 2-family brick townhouse is configured as a single-family home with two full baths and three bedrooms, and the potential for a fourth large bedroom. The garden floor features an open plan kitchen and dining area which steps out to a sunny backyard, with a bucolic view down the center of the block. A convenient pantry off the kitchen artfully conceals stairs to a full cellar. Upstairs, the parlor floor is open and lofty with a wood burning fireplace, oak floors, and the original staircase. The top floor features two bedrooms, a full bath, an office, and two more fireplaces.
