From the Zillow listing:

 

Historic stone Victorian approximately 3,440 sq ft. adorned with original woodwork, coffer ceilings, cherry hardwood floors, pocket doors, a wrap-around stone front porch, all waiting to be restored back to its shine and glory. Hidden staircases, multiple fireplaces, a butler’s pantry, and stained-glass windows are only a couple mysteries that can be found in this grand home. The second-floor features 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio overlooking the fields of Union College. A paved driveway under a stone portico leads to a great backyard for entertaining and a detached garage with second floor bonus. Having its own private entrance, it is ready to be completed into living, entertaining space or extra storage. Needs TLC and work.
