Opportunity knocks in East Boston with this well-located three-family offering three one-bedroom units and strong income potential. Each unit features a functional layout, hardwood flooring in many areas, and separately metered utilities. The first-floor unit includes an updated kitchen with white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, while the additional units offer spacious rooms and flexible living areas. Outside, the property features rear decks and a fenced backyard, providing valuable outdoor space in the city. Major updates include a roof approximately four years old, replacement windows completed around ten years ago, and newer water heaters. Conveniently located near public transportation, shopping, parks, restaurants, schools, highway access, and the T. Some listing photos have been virtually edited to remove personal belongings and clutter.
