The Greek Revival brick townhouse at 237 Carlton Avenue was probably our favorite of the tour. Built in 1845, the first three floors have a side addition that results in what must be a 35- to 40-foot wide living space. The wide plank floors typical of the period are in great shape and the balcony ironwork is stunning. The interior design is dominated by a number of Chinese antiques. The gigantic yard is calling out for some love but affords a great view of the charmingly run-down church rectory (?) over the back fence. GMAP
