The second floor unit has a gracious eat-in kitchen and large living /dining area with a warm bedroom and full bathroom. The third floor unit is currently configured as a 2 bedroom unit with a large living room, kitchen and full bathroom. Throughout the building, the historic character is preserved by hardwood floors and multiple original marble fireplace mantels.
