The front residence boasts a brand-new kitchen with modern appliances, fresh paint, and updated flooring, providing a move-in-ready experience within a charming 1920s architectural shell.
With only 1,429 total square feet split between two separate units, the individual living areas and bedrooms may feel undersized for buyers seeking spacious interiors.
