This sprawling garden-level duplex has just come to market for rent. Located on a leafy block, it offers two bedrooms, two baths, laundry, closets galore and a rare greenhouse-office which overlooks the south-facing garden. Enter this townhouse on street level and find additional storage under the stoop and a charming vestibule with a built-in bench to make taking off/putting on boots and shoes easy. Coat hooks are also a convenience here, though there's a proper coat closet just inside.
