Listing broker remarks

Welcome to 59 Forest Ave, a charming Colonial packed with character and so much potential! Step inside through the cozy entryway and fall in love with the beautiful wood floors, unique windows, crown molding, and classic fireplace in the living room. With 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, there is plenty of space to make this home your own. The huge attic offers exciting potential for additional living space, and that’s not all! An approximately 1,000 sq. ft. addition was started with plans for a 2 bedroom in law suite. The foundation is poured and framing is in place, giving handy buyers an incredible head start. Sitting on a fantastic corner lot, you may just have the best yard on the street! There’s even a fun bird’s eye view balcony that makes the perfect spot to watch Greenfield’s fireworks. Bring your ideas and make this classic Greenfield home shine!— Cohn & Company
