Description
Well-located three-family home just minutes from downtown and the commuter rail, offering strong investment or owner-occupant potential. The first floor features a spacious three-bedroom, one full bath unit with hardwood flooring, a renovated kitchen, heated mudroom, laundry room/pantry, and an additional bonus room for flexible use. The second floor includes two one-bedroom apartments, each with its own bonus room, updated flooring, and newer cabinetry. All utilities are fully separate, with individual gas furnaces and electrical panels, plus town water and sewer. Each unit is currently on a month-to-month lease, providing flexibility and upside—rents are below market and could be increased. A detached two-car garage offers added income potential or convenient storage for an owner-occupant. The flat, level yard adds to the property’s appeal for tenants or personal enjoyment.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son went to school here, and while he wasn't the most diligent of students, he received an exceptional amount of support for four years. The teachers were genuinely concerned for student welfare and academic achievement and reached out (usually by email) to update parents on classroom activities. The high school offered many opportunities for student engagement with after-school clubs, sports programs, and summer camps. My son required a special ed plan and received one. It was reviewed periodically and measured for goal setting. When the pandemic hit, it was very, very hard for everyone. The teachers tried to be flexible and creative to maintain interest in remote learning and when the students returned to classrooms, hygiene was of extreme importance--hand washing, wiping down desks, masking, etc. All in all, my son had a very good experience at this school.Parent Review1y ago - Annie Sullivan Middle School
