Listing broker remarks

Charming single family home in the West End of New Bedford, ready for your customization! This 2 Bed, 1 Bath home is an open canvas ready for your design touches and the price reflects the anticipated updates to make this home your own. In addition to the interiors being painted in a neutral scheme, the beautiful wood floors have been exposed, and the landscaping has already been done with its lovely blue hydrangeas, spray roses, and sky pencil hollies, reminiscent of a classic Nantucket cottage. The roof was redone approximately 5 years ago and the functional systems are in good working order. A huge bonus - it has off-street parking for 1 to 2 vehicles with a natural driveway outlined in seashells. This home is ready for you to build further equity in a prime location, in a quieter neighborhood between Downtown and Buttonwood Park. With the neighborhood's noticeable home renovations and improvements underway, it is promising for this great value investment. This will not last long!— William Raveis R.E. & Home Services
