House of the Day: 140 Midwood Street

This classic Renaissance Revival limestone in the Manor has pretty much every original detail and looks to be in immaculate condition. Yes, it has its original built-in icebox, marble sinks in the passthroughs, and even an original copper sink in the butler’s pantry.

Designed by architect George Lawton and built in 1899, it also has wedding-cake plaster details, stained glass, a triple parlor, pocket doors, pier mirror, three mantels and original oak floors, according to the listing. The kitchen is a little monotone for our tastes but would be easy to update with paint, counters, and paneling for the island.

Asking $2,225,000, it’s priced in line with recent record setters in the area. What do you think of the house and the ask?
