About This Home
As of June 2023Welcome to 205 West Highland Avenue, a grand, oversized twin waiting to be modernized while also brought back to its original splendor and details. With a wrap-around porch and double width lot, this classic Victorian with 10’ height ceilings and multiple fireplaces has potential for a wonderful kitchen/great room addition. 5-6 bedrooms await the next owner with 3 full baths and potential for a ½ bath on the first floor where the laundry now sits. The back of the house opens up to a large private yard and off street parking for 2+ cars. A must see for those with an eye for the rehab of a majestic, large home in a choice, top-of-the hill location with a short walk to the train, park and Germantown Avenue.
