About This Home
As of January 2024In an A+ Southie location, this truly unique 2 bed packs a punch for an investor or owner occupant alike. Clocking in at an oversized 1300 sq ft, the possibilities for this sun-splashed upper duplex are endless. The private entrance and mud room mean it lives like a single family: a staircase leads you into an open living and dining area, separated by a two-sided gas fireplace. Updated kitchen with stainless appliances, gas range, and custom cabinetry means you're ready to host football Sunday. Small deck off the rear catches light from the south all day, great for coffee and the newspaper. Up another staircase, the top level boasts vaulted ceilings and skylights galore, as well as two generous bedrooms, and a full bathroom with large jacuzzi tub, double vanity, and laundry. Live in the heart of Southie, and then convert this into a rental for passive income in the years to come. A gem awaits.
