Description

Not your typical Highlands Colonial — 70 Allen Ave offers flexibility, space, and opportunity in a location that's hard to beat. Tucked on a quiet street, this home features a layout that adapts to your needs: a sun-filled living room flowing into a formal dining area, a spacious eat-in kitchen with gas cooking and abundant cabinet space, and a skylit sunroom all on the first floor. The heated season sunroom with home office, guest suite, or fourth bedroom potential opens to a private deck and fenced yard built for long summer evenings of grilling, gardening, and entertaining. Three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level, while the lower level offers workshop space, storage, and untapped potential. Partial ocean views, off-street parking, and proximity to parks, schools, and commuter routes round out an already compelling package. A strong neighborhood. A versatile home. A real opportunity. Open House this Sat & Sun 11am-1pm.

    "Dog owners would have to be careful of being attacked by other dogs, being mugged, and, stalked. Dec 2023 a man’s nose and ear were bitten off by 2 loose dogs next to the park in the area where all the kids go play in the summer. I have personally been stalked while walking my dog, had a weapon pointed at me for just walking the dog around the block, and had an aggressive dog jump the fence 2x to get to my dog. Now we drive to safer towns to go on walks because of how dangerous it has been just to walk around the block with our dog. "
