Property Description

This charming colonial home is full of character and special design features, both inside and out. A true gem waiting for the right buyer to make it their own. The main level offers a living room with a slider leading out to a generous deck, a bright sunroom off the kitchen, and a formal dining room with beautiful built-in cabinetry. Upstairs, two bedrooms with good closet space are complemented by a versatile sitting area, perfect for a home office. Outside, this home sits gracefully on a hill, offering an upper deck and a private lower patio. The sloped lot presents a wonderful opportunity to create a stunning terraced yard. Imagine beautifully landscaped levels connecting the upper and lower outdoor spaces. One of the most distinctive features of this property is its unique two-street presence. The home is accessed from Lawrence Street while the detached garage sits on Montgomery Street below, a rare and convenient configuration that adds both character and practicality. The full basement with a walkout to the lower patio provides excellent storage, utility, and workspace potential. A private front yard and welcoming front porch complete the picture. Additional highlights include a brand new roof, giving the next owner peace of mind from day one. This home is being sold as-is and is ready for new flooring. The old carpet has already been removed to make it move-in ready for your vision. With one and a half bathrooms and an abundance of unique spaces, this is a very special home ideal for a buyer ready to create something truly wonderful.
