This two-family home in New Bedford, offers exceptional potential for investors or homeowners looking to capitalize on its versatility. With a spacious layout and well-maintained structure, the property currently functions as a two-family residence, but it also presents the opportunity for a conversion into a three-family setup, making it an ideal project for maximizing rental income. Additionally, the inclusion of a cottage-style unit adds charm and further possibilities for expansion or multi-generational living. The home sits on a corner lot with ample outdoor space, offering plenty of room for customization and enhancement. Located in the downtown area, this property is just minutes away from all essential amenities, including shops, restaurants, and schools. Plus, with the new train station coming soon, commuting will be even more convenient, further enhancing the appeal for future tenants or buyers. This is a prime opportunity to invest in an up-and-coming neighborhood
