About this home

Stray little cape has lost its way and is seeking a new owner! At 1056 square feet and 0.22 acres, this old girl is a bit rough around the edges, but she's a survivor. We're looking for someone who believes in giving her another chance at being a forever home. The right buyer needs to be open-minded and sensitive to the challenges that come with a neglected house. But, what this cape lacks in form she makes up for in location, and you will be rewarded with a neighborhood that is walkable to everything from restaurants to medical care. Home being sold in As-In condition. Be careful as the railing to the basement is loose.
