From the Zillow listing:
A rare opportunity to own one of downtown’s distinguished historic rowhouses. The row of homes was built in 1890 by Ira Howe for his family and 624 stands as the largest residence and the only one with an attached carriage house. The grand double front doors, featuring original etched glass imported from France, create eye-catching curb appeal. On the front sidewalk, an original iron hitching post—still proudly in place—offers a glimpse into Victorian life. Step inside this preserved, protected landmark and take in the authentic 19th-century craftsmanship: ornate plaster moldings, stunning grand fireplaces, hand-crafted ceiling medallions with original fixtures and lanterns and of course, a grand staircase. An informal kitchen with emerald-stained-glass accents and a matching ornate tin ceiling adjoins a classic butler’s pantry, back staircase. The upper level bedrooms are connected by built-in storage wardrobes—details that transport you to another era. Escape to a whimsical, gated private garden out back surrounded by a brick wall with decorative iron details. Don’t miss this extraordinary Italianate residence in the heart of downtown where shopping, dining and entertainment are just steps away. Broker owned.
