About this home

Rare East Somerville two-family in a prime location, just steps from Broadway and within walking distance to Assembly Row and Sullivan Square! A standout opportunity for investors, developers, contractors or owner-occupants looking to create value in one of the city’s most convenient neighborhoods. A Somerville rarity, ample off-street parking for approx. 6 cars, plus a detached 2-car garage! Two residential units offer flexible layouts and bonus space, while the spacious basement with an existing full bathroom adds even more potential. Renovate over time, hold as an investment, or explore future development possibilities. Easy access to the Orange Line, I-93, Boston, shopping, dining and everything Assembly has to offer. Currently tenanted and to be delivered vacant. Property sold as-is. Buyer/buyer’s agent to perform due diligence regarding condition, zoning, permitted uses and future development.
