    What's special

    Opportunity is knocking for the discerning buyer looking for the perfect equity builder and priced well below the town's assessed value. Memories were made and enjoyed for over 43 years by the large family who affectionately referred to this home as "The Rock". Alas, the time has come to pass this home along to the buyer who is willing to do the necessary repairs to make this home their own. Located in a desirable and walkable neighborhood with easy access to the Wyoming Hill T station that travels from Boston to Haverhill, within a mile to the Oak Grove "Orange Line" and a nice walk to Downtown where you'll find trendy shops, restaurants and the popular Y.M.C.A. Once inside this Charming Cape Cod style home, you will be surprised at the expansive space. The oversized living room with fireplace, large dining room, first floor den that could serve as an extra guest room and four second floor bedrooms that includes a master suite. The view from the sun room is an extra bonus!

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
