Inside, you'll find preserved architectural details including a grand staircase, ornate plasterwork, and fireplaces, along with recent improvements such as a new roof, refinished windows, new gutters, off-street parking, on-site laundry, and efficient boiler heat (with gas, water, and sewer covered by the owner). Currently, 8 units are operating as Airbnbs with high upside, while the remaining units are leased to long-term tenants, offering steady income and room for future growth.
