This is a gem of an investment property right in the heart of Fairhaven in the Urban Village! Live in the main 3 bed house and get a great interest rate, and then rent the two upper 2 bedroom units. All the character is intact with crown molding, white shaker cabinets, built-ins and each room is very generously sized. The upper 2 units have access from an exterior stairway off the back side of the triplex. There is a basement that has a work shop and storage units, along with coin-op washer and dryer (for the upper units, but they are W/D ready, too) and a 3/4 bath that is about .75% done, and additional units could be added down there. Electrical, plumbing, furnaces and hot water were updated in 2000 or sooner.
