Part of the historic Belmont Square enclave designed by David Julius Witmer, the New York-style row house design offers unique character and aesthetic appeal that distinguishes it from standard multi-family units.

The extremely small 1,302-square-foot lot limits outdoor living space and provides virtually no room for future expansion or the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
