About this home

Builders, Contractors, Developers, Investors, Fixer Upper Buyers and Preservationists – this property is for you! Solid antique colonial with all the usual details: including period woodwork, “Indian” shutters, hardwood and wide pine flooring, a circular staircase and 5 fireplaces. This home needs work. It was converted to a 2 family and is currently zoned for this use. Nearly 2,600 sq ft with 2 kitchens, 2 full baths and 11 rooms total on three levels. Attached modern two car garage. Deeded access to Ipswich River. “Double” lot offers potential for future development (see disclosures). Yes, it is a project – but there is tremendous upside potential here. Sold strictly “as is”.
