Rare opportunity to own a turnkey 3-family in a strong Dorchester location near Talbot Ave commuter rail.

Deleaded units with compliance documentation available. The layout offers spacious units, including a first-floor unit with additional finished lower-level space and separate entrance, a large second-floor unit, and a top-floor unit featuring a primary suite. Additional features include updated systems, off-street parking, strong commuter access to downtown Boston, and architectural shingles replaced approximately 7 years ago on the pitched portion of the roof.
