On the market for the first time in over 50 years, this split-level home built by Thomas Healy of Galway, Ireland sits on a desirable corner lot in Quincy’s Houghs Neck. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, it lives larger than expected thanks to a spacious cathedral-ceiling living room filled with natural light. The original 1950s kitchen and baths are ready for the next owner’s personal touches. A large partially finished basement adds storage and another full bath, providing great potential for expanded living. The former two-car garage was converted into additional living space with mini-split heating and cooling. Loved for decades, this home is ready for its next chapter. The home is located in close proximity to the ocean boardwalk as well as public transit.
