Looking for that non cookie cutter home with an affordable price. This may be the one for you. Step back in time to this six room, three bedroom, two bath condex/duplex style home. This home shows the character of the early 1900's with wide pine flooring, high ceilings and good size rooms. The major items have been done recently with a newer heating system, newer electric panel, mostly newer windows, a newer roof and an updated kitchen. This home is within walking distance of Saugus Center, restaurants, shopping and public transportation out your front door. Your two car garage with ample parking is a great bonus. No condo fees. May not pass FHA/VA financing.
