Two-Family Use
The building is currently divided into two triplexes. (See Floor Plan 1 )
Each unit is nearly the size of some full townhouses. The lower unit has two oversized bedrooms with 12' ceilings. The upper unit has a diversity of spaces, including up to 5 bedrooms, as well as a roof garden.
Unlike many townhouses in which the second unit is a small garden apartment, this building has two large spaces with very different amenities. The homeowner can move to different spaces depending on need and desire.
Single Family Use
The building can easily be converted to single family use through the removal of one non-loadbearing wall. Further alterations could include full recovery of the original one-family use with the return of the front stoop and minor renovations upstairs. (See Floor Plan 2)
