About This Home

Well-maintained two-family property set on an oversized lot in a desirable Lynn location near Flax Pond. Both units offer a flexible floor plan with spacious rooms and solid interior condition, making this an ideal opportunity for owner-occupants and investors alike. Interior updates have been well cared for, allowing a new owner to focus on maximizing future value. The exterior will benefit from trim and shingle repairs and/or replacement, presenting a clear value-add opportunity. A detached oversized one-car garage and ample outdoor space add to the property’s appeal and functionality. With strong upside potential in rental income and a location close to commuter routes, and local amenities, this is a smart long-term hold with room to grow. Rent in unit two is market rent not actual. Actual is unknown.
