Listing broker remarks

Tucked away on a private, dead end street, yet under a ½ mile to Porter, 8 Parker Place is an outstanding opportunity in a coveted location. Currently configured as a two-family home, it offers a straightforward conversion to a single family home–in fact it appears it may have originally been built as a single residence. The home makes the most of its southwest exposure with ample large windows and high ceilings. A detailed original staircase greets you on first entry and there is much original millwork throughout the home. The side and backyards are ripe with possibility and have many mature plantings, including fruit trees and many flowering perennials. By tradition, the house has the use of two parking spaces on Parker Place.— Compass
