Each side of the duplex offers max living space(S Willow side: 10 room, 7 bedrooms 2.1 baths,Union St side: 9 room,6 bedrooms,2 baths) with the rare distinction of separate street addresses. The home itself occupies nearly the entire lot, a reminder of its era's architectural ambition. Unmodernized for over 50 years, the property awaits a steward with vision someone eager to restore its character, highlight its craftsmanship, and return this landmark corner home to its original grace. For preservationists, architects, or those who appreciate homes with integrity, this is a rare chance to bring back a piece of history. Unrenovated for more than 50 years, this property is a blank canvas for your vision. Options abound: restore as luxury rentals, reimagine as condominiums, or design multigenerational living with income potential. Opportunities like this: two full homes under one roof rarely come to market. This is an oversized duplex ready for reinvention.
