The gray exterior of this Hudson Second Empire Victorian might be all drama, but the interior is comfy and grounded. 

The c.1888 exterior of this ornate Victorian house will certainly turn a head or two. There’s more than just a pretty face going on here, though. Its 2,800-square-foot interior boasts a laid-back scheme with lots of open space, natural light, and co-mingled original and updated features.
