This is a unicorn: three units, a two-story barn with two garage bays, on approximately 1.95 acres in Worcester — a combination unmatched in Worcester's three-family stock. A rare owner-occupant opportunity in this price range — or hold it as a full investment. Possible ADU conversion of the barn and additional development potential (buyer to verify with the City) add further upside. This architecturally charming three-family has been substantially improved, including a fully renovated third-floor unit with dedicated mini-split heating and cooling. Fruit trees, gardens, and open land pair with real investment fundamentals in one rare package. Located in Quinsigamond Village, near Greenwood Park's playground, spray park, and sports courts, with convenient access to Route 20, I-290, and the Mass Pike for commuters, in a neighborhood with local shops and restaurants.

North Quinsigamond Village, located between Lake Quinsigamond and Shrewsbury Street, is a lakeside and residential Worcester neighborhood with shoreline views and a mix of mid-century streetscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Shrewsbury Street corridor near the Lake Quinsigamond boat ramps, where local eateries, corner storefronts, and commuter traffic set a steady rhythm. Triple-deckers and compact capes sit alongside small apartment buildings, with pockets of older industrial fabric near the rail lines. Lake Quinsigamond Park and the shoreline paths shape daily routines around water and open sky. The nearby Worcester Art Museum and Mechanics Hall add a cultural counterpoint to the lakefront calm.
