Property Description
Step into history with this grand 2,990 sq ft brick Victorian, commandingly situated on a corner lot at 655 Brown Ave and bundled with the adjacent lot at 21 West St. Built in 1881, this stately landmark features timeless architectural grandeur and 10 generous rooms waiting to be restored to their full potential. Whether you dream of creating a magazine-worthy forever home, documenting a viral before-and-after renovation, or curating a historic masterpiece, the canvas here is completely unmatched. The R2 zoning and multi-family designation present an outstanding opportunity for a high-yield conversion or premium renovation flip. Infrastructure is a major highlight, featuring two separate detached two-car garages for four total covered parking spaces, workshop room, or potential garage rental income. Inside, four large bedrooms and three full baths across two stories and a full basement offer the substantial scale needed for a custom modern layout. Capitalize on this rare opportunity today. Custom renovation options available. This sale includes the subject property ($3464 tax/year) and the lot located on 21 West St ($351 tax/year). Combined, the double-lot footprint expands over 18,700 sq ft, offering rare outdoor space perfect for private gardens, entertaining, or custom landscaping.
