About This Property

Built in 1940 and situated on a charming, tree-lined street, this classic three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath Colonial presents an exciting opportunity for contractors, investors, or buyers with a vision. Rich in character, the home features beautiful original millwork, two fireplaces, a traditional floor plan, and a partially finished basement offering additional living-space potential.

Additional features include a one-car garage and a private backyard with plenty of potential to create an inviting outdoor retreat. Conveniently located within walking distance of neighborhood schools and close to local amenities, this diamond in the rough is ready to be restored and transformed into a true neighborhood showcase.
