Beautiful Victorian Home with 3 Apartments selling via an Online ABSOLUTE Auction --Wednesday, March 26, 2025 - Bidding begins closing out at 6 pm! This property sells regardless of price! This Victorian Triplex features 3 apartments and a wealth of original charm including outstanding woodwork, some hardwood floors, and exquisite details like pocket doors and leaded glass accent windows. The intricate exterior trim work, while in need of restoration, hints at the grandeur this home once possessed. An enclosed front porch invites you to sit and enjoy your morning coffee or entertain guests during warmer months. Upon entering through the double door entry, you are greeted by a welcoming foyer that leads to a parlor room on the right, complete with a cozy fireplace and more leaded glass accents. The main living area is located upstairs, featuring a generous living room, 2-3 bedrooms, a bathroom, and a large kitchen. The expansive attic space presents an exciting opportunity for conversion into a master suite or additional living quarters. The large basement offers ample room for a workshop area, catering to your creative projects. The larger apartment on the main floor could easily be converted back into part of the main living space, accessible via the pocket doors in the foyer. This property represents an awesome opportunity for someone looking to restore a Victorian gem to its former glory or as an investment for rental income. Open House: Sunday, March 16th 1-1:30pm
