Start With the Wallpaper: the Potential of 94 Pinckney Street

The Street & Company listing for the townhouse at 94 Pinckney Street in the Beacon Hill flatlands is perfectly frank: "We are pleased to offer an outstanding opportunity to customize this large, gracious and sunny Victorian ..." It would definitely need some work, unless you ponied up ironically for the 6-BR, 4.5-BA 3,991-square-footer with exposures on three sides. How much are we talking about, then, price-wise? The house is asking $3,450,000—or relatively inexpensive (for Beacon Hill) $864 and change per square foot. Understandable perhaps, given the renovation costs inherent. Takers?
