Though the City classified it as a two-family home until 1980, it has been used as a single family since then and buyer should confirm permissible use. 2021 structural inspection report is available through your agent. There are 2 kitchens, 2 electric service panels, and 2 boilers. Seller reports that the plumbing froze in recent years and buyer should be prepared to completely restore this property and replace all plumbing, appliances, and fixtures.
