Rare opportunity in the heart of West Medford! This traditional Colonial, set on a large private lot, offers exceptional potential for developers, investors, or buyers with vision. Currently zoned GR, the property presents the strong possibility for 2 units with street frontage on both Sharon and Sherman Streets. Historic Commission approval for removal has already been obtained by the owners but is not transferrable. However, the new owner may reapply. Ideally located with easy access to Cambridge, Boston, and Tufts University, while also convenient to the MBTA Commuter Rail with direct access to North Station. Enjoy nearby shops, restaurants, and the vibrant West Medford neighborhood. Whether restoring the existing home or pursuing redevelopment, this is a unique opportunity in a prime location.
