About This Home

Back on the market through no fault of the property - the previous buyer's financing fell through - and available again to someone ready to move. What sets this one apart is what has already been paid for: 200-amp electrical service, a high-efficiency 4-zone natural gas heating system, town water and town sewer, and a roof replaced roughly 13 years ago. Those are the line items that quietly consume a renovation budget before a buyer ever picks a paint color, and here they are behind you. The second floor holds a town-approved accessory unit with its own kitchen and living space - permitted, approved, and rare at this price - a genuine second zone under one roof with all the flexibility that brings. Four bedrooms and two full baths sit in a classic Colonial layout, and under the carpet is hardwood. What remains is cosmetic: paint, flooring, fixtures, finishes.That is updating you can do on your own timeline and to your own taste. Then there is the land - 1.54 acres with a stream running along the rear boundary, which means nothing gets built behind you, ever. A detached garage rounds it out. Location does real work here as well: near The Loop for everyday shopping, dining and errands, with quick access to both I-495 and I-93, the pairing that puts Boston, southern New Hampshire and the North Shore within practical reach on the same day. The math is straightforward. The capital improvements are made, the utilities are municipal, and the remaining work is the affordable kind - the kind that shapes a house into what you want rather than what someone else already chose. Acreage, a permitted accessory unit, updated systems, municipal water and sewer, and a location this connected rarely arrive together at this price, and this property has already proven it can find a buyer.
