The home is now set up as a double duplex. The lower unit is vacant, and the upper unit is under lease until July 2024. This unique property offers an exceptional opportunity to expand and upgrade this home in any manner you may need. A current Architectural Review suggests that a Carriage House with parking and guest quarters could be added at the back of the lot, a 2 story extension could be added to the rear of the home, and the window plan along Cheever Place could be revised to bring in even more Western light. The Architectural Review also suggests that it may be possible to build a deck on the roof to take in sweeping views of the skyline and harbor. It's an amazing opportunity. Please contact the Listing Agent for access to the Architectural Review. The building is in very sound condition, and is built on brick arches in the cellar to lend another 150+ years of stability.
