About this home

With great vision comes great opportunity and upside. This hidden gem is a true diamond in the rough awaiting fresh ideas. Location, location, location! This home sits outside of Ipswich's bustling downtown just beyond the MBTA Commuter Rail station. Tucked back from the road lies huge potential. Tired and in need of major updates inside and out, the home has good bones and is accordingly priced to be one of the best values in town. Nowhere else will you find a downtown single family with a large detached garage, water, sewer, and gas connections within a solid structure all for the price of a lot. This is your blank canvas on which to add your own design and artistic touches to transform this ugly duckling into a super cute home. Not for the faint of heart but for those with vision and an ability to identify potential this is your ticket to a home-run purchase in today's red hot Ipswich housing market. Bonus: Home has a brand new $5k+ forced hot air furnace installed. Don't miss out!
