About This Home

As of May 2026

This 4 bdrm Colonial is basically a clean slate to be rebuilt if so desired. It has been used as an up and down duplex in previous years, and even has separate electric & gas meters...or can be used as a single family home as easy. It has been nearly gutted. Has 2 Bdrms down, 2 bdrms up, and 1 full bath up as well as 1 full bath down.
The Seller has mentioned this home should ideally be sold in a package deal with the 500 Middle Ave commercial building (MLS#5178660), and torn down to expand the parking for the commercial building. They would not want this property to be sold in advance of the commercial building being purchased, but in the event the buyer of the commercial building is ok with just using the vacant lot across the street for parking, then Sellers would be open to selling this property separately at that point, but not prior to it.
Home is being sold AS-IS, would need to be cash only, and seller will make no repairs.
