About this home

Best In-Law Around! Charming residence with Main House & attached Cottage. Fantastic opportunity to obtain a rare property for an incredible price. Highly sought after location near town, train, beach, marina & playground! Main House has 3 bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor with a luxury master suite and bath on the third floor. Cottage, new in 2002 has kitchen, dining area, one and a half baths, two large bedrooms, attic and two entrances. Upstairs laundry in both. Generous private yard plus deck for entertaining & play. Bonus luxury master suite & additional finished square footage on third floor in Main House not included in tax record. Short sale, sold as-is.

Please see the attached property features and upgrades, too many to mention in the listing! Short sale, sold as-is. 3% commission in listing agreement. The short sale specialist assigned by the bank to this account said that the commission and price are approved by the bank, but I am documenting here that the commission and sale are still subject to bank approval, and any commission received will be split equally with the co-broke.
