This late Victorian Renaissance Revival limestone and brick townhouse is quite grand. For starters, it’s 27 feet wide and 7,500 square feet, according to the listing. It has a center hall stair and appears to be well preserved, with impressive tile and wood fireplaces, wainscoting, delicate plaster details in the stairwell, stained glass, and other original details.
It’s currently set up as four rentals over an owner’s duplex, though it does not appear to be an SRO. Although the most recently C of O we could find for it says it’s a four-family, not a five, the listing implies the units are occupied and, we presume, rent regulated.
The floor plan is hard to make out, but typically a center hall stair means renters have to pass through through the owner’s duplex to get to their units. “Property is in working condition but needs to be updated,” says the listing. What do you think of it and the ask of $2,999,000?

Could have done the floors at least. Beautiful either way.
