Welcome to the 1886 Abraham Cohen Home! Rumors surround this property as possibly one of famed architect Nicolas Clayton's undocumented works. Featuring 4-5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 8 porches the home has large rooms and is exactly what you would want in a Victorian masterpiece. New electrical, new plumbing and gas lines, new HVAC, and an architectural pressed metal tile roof. Perfectly located on the western edge of the East End Historic District the home provides unmatched ease to the restaurants, bars, galleries, and the Historic Strand District just blocks away. The kitchen provides a beautiful canvas on which to cook, while the massive primary suite, attached bath, and large walk-in closet feels like a vacation. Original floors and restored windows stretch throughout the home which has exceptional storage for a Victorian residence. There is covered off street parking for two as well as space for a golf cart off the alley. Being sold fully furnished.
