From the Agent: "Once a neighborhood grocery, this Central District landmark has been fully reimagined for modern living. Rustic details—reclaimed wood, polished concrete, and restored storefront windows—blend seamlessly with smart features, air-conditioning, and updated systems. The chef’s kitchen includes butcher-block counters, pro appliances and open shelving. With three bedrooms and two-and-three-quarter baths, the home’s highlight is the top-floor retreat where doors open to sweeping views. Multiple decks, including one on the rooftop, extend living outdoors and capture sunsets. Historic gems like this are hard to find!"
The ’20s building was originally owned by Mr. and Mrs. Humphreys, and it was the only Black-owned butcher and grocery store in the area.
