This could really be a fantastic house if someone undoes all of what the Masons did to the inside. There are vert few pictures for the size of this house. I wish the agent had posted more pictures, especially of the unfinished third floor, but there is a video that shows just a little bit more. I hope the next owner will uncover all the mahogany woodwork hiding under all of that paint, rip out all of the carpets and hopefully reveal some hardwood floors and restore this house back to the majestic gem it once was. I'll be watching this one closely for updates.
