Located in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Amesbury, this 3+ bed 2 bath gambrel cape is just waiting for your finishing touches! This lovely home sits on a great lot just under a 1/4 acre, with easy access to highways and shopping/restaurants. Inside on the first floor you will find a good sized eat in kitchen, as well as a full bath with standup shower. Lots of entertaining space with a formal dining room, spacious living room, as well as a bonus office/potential 4th bedroom with sliders that lead out to the backyard. Second floor features 3 bedrooms including a large front to back primary, new carpets throughout, and a gorgeous recently renovated full bathroom. The interior was freshly painted, and most of the windows have also been recently replaced. Unfinished basement provides plenty of room for storage, and has potential for extra living space if needed. Great flat backyard, there is also off street parking. *Offer deadline Tuesday 3/5 at noon*
Opportunity is knocking. This three bedroom, two bath home needs some TLC but sits on a nice flat lot with a shed and good access to commuter routes and downtown Amesbury or Newburyport. The first floor bath was renovated not too long ago. There's a spacious eat in kitchen, dining room, living room and den or even a fourth bedroom on the first floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath. The second floor bathroom is torn apart and the Sellers will not be finishing it. Buyers should check with their lender regarding financing. It may require local or rehab loan. The roof is less than ten years old and the hot water heater less than five years old. This is a great value.
