This historic Greek Revival farmhouse was the first home on Lawrence St. Built in 1860, it has been restored as close as possible to its original beauty and each unit painstakingly renovated to exceed code requirements. After decades of neglect and multiple owners intentionally damaging the home's structural and aesthetic integrity through shady contracting and shoddy work until its most recent purchase in early 2021 by the current owner, it's true beauty is finally showing through. The first floor unit offers 2 bedrooms, a family room that can double as a 3rd bedroom if needed for larger families, as well as a formal dining room and a sunroom. The eat-in kitchen and the bathroom have been completely remodeled as well to offer stainless steel GE appliances, as well as higher-end Moen and Delta waterfall/rainfall fixtures. The laundry room boasts a brand new large stacked GE washer/dryer. The same goes for the 2nd floor unit, which has one bedroom and an expansive living room complete with a barn door to provide additional privacy. There is also a large dining room, a galley kitchen, and a remodeled bathroom all with new venetian bronze fixtures and stainless appliances to match the first floor unit. The 3-season back porch complete with a breakfast nook completes this unit, perfect for a young couple or even a desirable AirBNB to rent out. This house has been combed through thoroughly. If there was a detail to spare - it wasn't. Interconnected carbon monoxide alarms and smoke detectors inhabit literally every room. The 2nd floor rear egress staircase has been rebuilt to exhibit a 2-tier deck/patio made with authentic Trex brand decking on the top, and the original flagstone pavers that once bordered the house's perimeter underneath. The HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems have all been revamped complete with separate on-demand hot water heaters for each unit. motion-detecting security cameras have been wired in and connected to the house's WiFi so to view from anywhere in the world. To close, the backyard at 2 Lawrence has been landscaped, tiered, and gardened to rival grand estates of old. A fire pit fits as the centerpiece, and the retaining wall into which it is built runs not only the full length of the property to create multiple outdoor enjoyment spaces, but was constructed from historic bricks, slate pavers and marble sourced from properties formerly owned by St John's Church down the street at the corner of Lawrence & Herrick St. These materials also line the recently remodeled front walkway to the main entrance. 2 Lawrence St is both a landlord and a tenant's dream home. It is in an immaculate condition which not only deserves, but commands only the best tenants and owners possible to maintain its pristine status.
