551 Madison Street












Description
Measuring in at 20x 45 on a 100 foot lot with an extension on the rear of the garden level, this property is full of intact original details that have been preserved throughout the years. The home features original wood details—...Upon walking up to 551 Madison, your eyes are drawn to the dog-legged front stoop that still has its original metal work and handrails. Your eyes then notice the height and presence of the structure, and see that the whole tree lined block is full of well kept brownstones.
Measuring in at 20x 45 on a 100 foot lot with an extension on the rear of the garden level, this property is full of intact original details that have been preserved throughout the years. The home features original wood details— hardwood floors, moldings, decorative mantles, pier mirror, window shutters, and wainscoting.
The parlor floor is perfectly situated for grand entertaining with its high ceilings, and rear windows overlooking the garden. This is also where you will find an abundance of detail, particularly the pier mirror with such beautiful crown molding. Wainscoting follows up the steps to the higher levels where you will find the rental units. The legal use is a two unit, being used as a three, but an ideal setup here would be a triplex over a garden rental, or two double duplexes. It’s all up to you.
This block is full of delightful neighbors, where their smiles and good mornings will warm you daily. Also steps to cafes, restaurants, groceries, and a quick walk to the A express train at Utica.
