Extensive electrical (no remaining knob/tube wiring) and HVAC zoning have been accomplished - 4 furnaces/zones - dividing the building into custom zones is possible for everyone's comfort (one working AC). Much of the plumbing has been replaced. Many of the original light fixtures and hardware for the main level have been retained and are ready for reinstallation. All stained glass windows are present (most original to the house). The front porch balusters and rails have been retained for refinishing and reinstallation. Both front porch and sunroom have newer foundations; front porch fully excavated; sunroom is a crawl space. An architectural addition was built to accommodate back stairs from the ground/garage level to the second floor. There is also a shaft built for a future elevator. Many kitchen appliances have been partially installed but never used. ***Offered in "as is" condition, the price reflects a remarkable opportunity for restoration enthusiasts or investors seeking substantial upside potential. This impressive residence awaits a new chapter—ready to be transformed and cherished for generations.
