Built in 1940

Built in 1940 and situated on a charming, tree-lined street, this classic three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath Colonial presents an exciting opportunity for contractors, investors, or buyers with a vision. Rich in character, the home features beautiful original millwork, two fireplaces, a traditional floor plan, and a partially finished basement offering additional living-space potential.
