About this home

Once proud 3 bedroom/1 bath Raised Cape with full, partially finished basement on a super desirable dead-end side street. Suffering from significant benign neglect and deferred maintenance, financing will be a challenge. Kitchen will need to be gutted as appears to be have been a small fire. Walk-out Lower Level finished into 2 rooms (Family room and Den). Fenced-in, level yard. Paved driveway for off street parking. Gas heat. Tremendous potential here, though not for amateurs. **This is a Fiduciary sale which requires obtaining a License To Sell from the Norfolk County Probate Court. Seller has never occupied premises and therefore has no knowledge of the condition of the systems.** THREE GROUP SHOWINGS ONLY: FRIDAY Nov 3 from 10-noon, SATURDAY Nov 4 from 10-noon and SUNDAY Nov 5 from 1-3pm. ***HIGHEST AND BEST OFFERS DUE MONDAY NOVEMBER 6 at 5pm FOR PRESENTATION. PLEASE MAKE OFFERS GOOD for 24 HOURS AND BE SURE TO INCLUDE LEAD PAINT FORM AS WELL AS PROOF OF FUNDS. ***
