About This Home

As of April 2025

Rare opportunity to own a 3 bed, 1 bath fixer-upper in MA for only $310K! The home and it's detached 1-car garage are nestled far back from the street with a wooded backyard for privacy. The living room is the heart of this home with walls of windows & classy wainscotting. The primary bedroom has a stunning vaulted ceiling with a slider to the yard. The bathroom is modern & the basement is large with laundry & shelves for storage. While the home is completely livable, it needs cosmetic updates—like fresh paint, new flooring & appliances— which would add even more value & personal flair. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or a savvy investor, this property presents an excellent opportunity to create your dream space with just a little effort! Priced to sell quick, AS-IS!
