Location, Location, Location! 3-Family just minutes to downtown, the commuter rail is less than 1/2 mile, shopping, dining and major routes. Bright, spacious units feature high ceilings, nice flow and eat-in kitchens. Current rents are well below market. Updating, all three units will enhance the value of each unit (buyers/agents to verify). Enjoy strong rental demand, low vacancy, 2 off-street parking spaces and separate gas and electric. Four additional attic rooms, accessed from the 2nd-floor unit, offer exciting potential for expanded living space or flexible use (buyers to confirm). All the trees around the property are being removed on 12/5 by the owner for insurance purposes. Heating systems and hot water heaters are approx. 6–10 years old with the exception of unit 51A, the furnace is older. Furnaces are serviced regularly.
