On the market for only the third time since its construction in 1905, it's easy to see why past residents stuck around at 234 Seeley St. in Windsor Terrace.

Listed for $2,100,000, the two-family townhouse has an owners' duplex, with one bedroom plus a den, and a two-bedroom rental. The description notes that you could remove a wall and the rental apartment kitchen to make a three- or four-bedroom single-family if you'd like.
