Opportunity knocks on a pleasant North Cambridge side street just ½ mile to both Porter and Davis Square. This well-maintained two-family has lovely curb appeal and offers tons of potential for an owner-occupant, or a savvy investor looking to buy into a great location. The first-floor features a comfortable 5 room, 2 bedroom, while the upstairs expands to a 3 bedroom, with the added comfort of central air. Both apartments have high ceilings, wood floors and beautiful original belly moldings. The unfinished walk-up attic and the unfinished basement offer significant potential for expansion. Outside, the property continues to impress with a landscaped front yard and a peaceful back yard, both with in-ground irrigation. The driveway can fit at least 3 cars, and the concrete storage shed might be convertible to a garage. Next to the Peabody School, close to Danehy Park, the Anderson Tennis Courts, Pemberton Farms, and easy access to shops, restaurants, and the bike path. Property being delivered vacant.
