Description

This is a fantastic property that you must see to beleive. This is an 1854 Greek Revival that has been fully restored. This house will last much longer than the cookie cutter homes of today. This is a mini-mansion built back when they made things to last. Won a restoration award in 2004 for restoration excellence. Must See! Updated aluminum Stove and Microwave - Huge Kitchen and Rooms - high ceilings - fireplaces, amazing craftsman details and old world charm yet fully restored, modern and in move-in do nothing shape! A rare find. For example, right as you enter, you have a beautiful foyer with a rare mahogany staircase (valued at over 20,000.) A great deal of house for your money. Another Bonus is that the third floor of this one family home is unfinished. You can make 2-3 more bedrooms and a 3rd parlor (house already has two parlors - formal and family) or build out the 3rd floor as a rentable apartment (house is zoned as two family so you dont need approvals) - the rear servants entrance and stairs serve perfectly as a seperate entrance if you create an apartment on floor 3 - you could live in the amazing first two floors - has 5 bedrooms and 2 baths on fls 1-2 and build out the third floor as you wish, the electrical and plumbing connections are already in place for the third floor - the rentable floor can be built with atleast 2-3 bedrooms possible - easily pull in upwards of 600.00 in monthly rent if you wish to rent it out!! Or build an in law apartment or simply build a massive home theater and/or guest rooms or whatever you want to do with the roughly 1500 sq feet of space up there. It also has a stunning widow's walk. This was a sea captains house commissioned for his family - it's a plaque house! This amazing house also has a huge unfinished basement that could also be built into an apartment or a massive "kids/teen" play room/floor - its up to you!! Lots of charm and possibilities here. Professional decorators chose all paint colors etc.. Most are Ralph Lauren colors - the kind you'd expect from a better homes and garden type house. It also has a fantastic deck (2) and wonderfully manicured flower beds ( I just had a landscaper do their upkeep magic! I absolutely love this house and hate to sell but divorce forces a sale of the property and all assets. Easily one of the best properties in new bedford - minutes from the bus to downtown Boston. I'm basically selling it to pay off the bank and to cover closing costs. I have a web page I am creating for the house at www.57morgan.com It will be jam packed with pictures and details. Too many details to list here. The price may be negotiable as well since I continue to pay the house. We can check with the bank on the actual remaining amount (less) and what the closing costs will be. Since it is a divorce, I'd like to sell it asap regardless of if I make any money or not. Save atleast 15,000.00 by not dealing with a broker. FSBO. Thanks!
