Classic 1940's Cape with hard and softwood floors, updated systems, and almost 1 acre land on Pool Street, abutting the Clifford Park Trail System. The home is bright and sunny, with spacious front and back yards. System upgrades within the last 8 years include septic system, furnace, and all roofing, plus a remodeled dormer with full tiled bath, making the house move-in ready. This is perfect as either a single family home, or as a good investment property as a rental to nearby UNE students.

Great Location, close to UNE and beaches. Large lot and a lovely 3 bedroom cape with beatiful hardwood floors. Full basement with a workshop and a finised room. Would be great for a UNE student to own and have a couple of roommates pay the mortgage.
