About this home

Join us for our Open Houses Sat and Sun 12-2 p.m. An excellent opportunity for investors and owner-occupants in East Boston’s desirable Eagle Hill neighborhood, with approximately $65,000 in potential gross annual rental income. The property can be delivered vacant, offering flexibility for immediate occupancy, tenant placement, or repositioning. This bright, updated two-family home features open-concept living areas, tall ceilings, and well-proportioned layouts. Each unit offers two bedrooms and one full bathroom. Additional amenities include a sunroom suitable for a home office or flex space, as well as a generously sized deck overlooking the spacious backyard—an inviting setting for gardening, entertaining, or outdoor relaxation. The partially finished basement provides a full bathroom, dedicated laundry area, and ample storage, along with potential for expanded use, subject to buyer due diligence and all required municipal approvals. Plenty of street parking is available throughout the surrounding area. Ideally situated near neighborhood restaurants, parks, schools, Day Square, Central Square, Liberty Plaza, Shaw’s, Market Basket, and additional shopping destinations. Constitution Beach and Revere Beach are also within convenient reach. Commuters will appreciate access to the Airport Blue Line station, Logan International Airport, Route 1A, and I-90, providing convenient connections to Downtown Boston and surrounding communities. Occupy one unit while generating rental income from the other, establish market-rate leases for both units, or add a versatile East Boston multifamily property to your investment portfolio.
