The lower residence retains its formal dining room and original built-in cabinetry while adding three lower-level bedrooms, a family room, in-unit laundry, and two of the property’s three bathrooms. A 2025 renovation introduced updated finishes, including a vintage-style main-level bath and a lower-level ensuite bath.
