About This Home

As of December 2025

Cute as a button on the outside, but the inside... whew-this one is ready for a makeover! Charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath, 2-story Cape Cod home situated on a corner lot with a fenced yard and detached garage. The main floor features a living room, dining room, kitchen, one bedroom, and a full bath, while the second floor offers two additional bedrooms. Laundry is located in the full basement. This home is being sold AS-IS with unknown condition of mechanicals, but a new roof was installed in 2023. Priced at $38/sf (not counting full basement and garage) with its current condition in mind, this property offers a great opportunity for buyers to make it their own.
