1872 Mansard House, Kensington

I was in Kensington the other day and noticed this lovely 1872 mansard style house for sale. I took the following photos.  The 2-storey house features a mansard roof - flat on top; three dormers on front, 2 on each side cut into the eaveline; double brick chimneys; eave moulding; double-hung windows; and a narrow sunporch on the north side of the house.
