INVESTMENT OR SWEAT EQUITY OPPORTUNITY - Classic New England Colonial on Route 139 is ready for updating / restoration. Convenient location less than half a mile from Holbrook Square and less than a mile from the Holbrook/Randolph Commuter Rail station. Surprisingly spacious inside, with three bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, a large eat-in-kitchen, dining room, living room in front, sun room with semi-cathedral ceiling and skylights off the back, and first-floor laundry. Outside, the fenced yard boasts multiple mature trees for shade. The oil tank and water heater are newer (less than 2 years old per seller), but this home will need work and is priced accordingly. Similar homes in top condition in Holbrook have sold for over $600,000 this year. May not qualify for FHA or VA financing. All appliances included. Take a look, crunch the numbers, and make your best offer.
