This is a special home. An open porch with separate entrances to main floor and another to upper level units makes for the perfect set-up for condo conversion. Built as a Thomas Edison cement house it is solid and practically sound-proof. The main level is the perfect owner suite with a gourmet kitchen, a huge dining room with non-working fireplace, a large living room that leads to a deck overlooking a beautiful fenced yard, an office, 2-3 bedrooms -1 captive, and master bath and a full bath. The second level features 2 bedroom, and 2 full baths, eat-in kitchen and living room. The 3rd floor boarder space features 4 large rooms with alcove windows, a full bath, and a fire escape. There is no kitchen. 2nd and 3rd floor can be combined to make a fabulous 3-4 bedroom unit. The huge basement is ripe for finishing with high ceilings and tons of space with 2 separate entrances. There is a separate adorable office/studio space with an outside entrance and full bath. Parking for 5 cars.
