About this home

Amazing opportunity to own a legal 4-unit in Wakefield! This is a project property- but don't let that deter you. It is ideal for someone willing to put some work into a true "diamond in the rough". Only being steps away from dining and shopping, minutes from the beach and close to the University of Rhode Island, makes this extremely appealing for future prospective tenants. Call today to see for yourself the great income potential this property has! Subject to probate court approval.
