About this home

A Rare Opportunity – On the Market for the First Time Since 1910! This historic 3-family home has been the cornerstone of generations and now is available for the first time in over a century. Located on East Broadway, about a block and a half from William J Day Boulevard, this property offers an unmatched opportunity to create new traditions in a classic setting. Sold “as-is,” this home is best appreciated in person, where you can truly grasp its unique character and the potential it holds. With high ceilings, antique details throughout even the original dumbwaiter closet still remains in the back stairwell. Each of the three units boasts an almost identical layout, rooms abound with lots of nooks and crannies that flow along with what feels like an endless amount of bonus rooms, closets and pantrys. Don’t miss the under utilized full-length unfinished basement or forget to step outside to the serene, lush backyard-perfect city oasis. Scroll for hand drawn layouts. Bring your offers!
