Description

This long-time North End family home has been loved by generations, and now it's your turn to give it some tender care and make it a showpiece of the neighborhood. The first thing you'll notice is the yard--a huge double lot--that offers so much potential for you to show off your landscaping and gardening skills (imagine a terraced patio out front, where you can chat with your neighbors and their dogs). And when you step inside you'll see some unique features that have been preserved--the mid-century cabinetry, a wide porcelain sink, sliding wall cabinets, arched doorways, etc. The two bedrooms are a reasonable size, the front-to-back living room and eat-in kitchen offer plenty of living space, and the mudroom and three-season porch expand that even more. There is also tons of space in the basement to finish--there's already a bathroom there, so you can complement it with some extra square footage and still have plenty of storage space. Good news: the furnace and hot water heater are brand new, the sewer line was just replaced, and the roof appears to be fairly new (seller does not know exact age), so you can put your money into cosmetic updates and garden plants instead of big, expensive fixes. If you're the unsentimental type, zoning is on your side because the double lot meets the basic requirements to subdivide and create two single-family lots (buyer should do their own due diligence, of course, and you'd have to tear the house down to accomplish that...which would be a shame!). Either way, the property is within walking distance of Livingstone Park and Hannaford, and around the corner from highway access, making it super convenient. Come check it out and fashion your own vision for this timeless home. OPEN HOUSES: Sat, 7/18, 10am-Noon; Sun, 7/19, 1-3pm.
