About this home

Bring your vision—and your contractor! This 1885 home is ready for a complete transformation and offers an opportunity to reimagine a property near both the beach and commuter rail. Owned by the same family since 1946, the home features 4 beds, 2 additional "bonus rooms", 1.5 baths and a large lot. Reportedly used as a two-family in the past, plumbing and gas lines for a second unit remain in place, offering intriguing possibilities for a buyer to explore. Period details including high ceilings, crown moldings, built-ins, arched doorways and glass doors provide a glimpse of the home’s original character and could be incorporated into a thoughtful renovation. Windows and siding were replaced in the 1990s; roof and heating system are approximately 20+ years old; hot water heater was replaced in 2024. This is not a cosmetic project—it’s an opportunity for a buyer, builder or renovator to start with a blank canvas and bring an 1885 home back to life.
