Exceptional opportunity in Charlestown's historic Town Hill neighborhood. Originally built as a single family residence, the property has been used as a 2 family since around 1950. It offers outstanding potential for restoration to a grand single or luxury multi-unit dwelling. It is situated steps from Peter Looney Park, the local skating rink and John Harvard Mall. Convenient access to Charlestown's waterfront, downtown Boston, public transportation, shops and restaurants. The property features central air, a driveway for off street parking, yard and gardening opportunity. The home retains original architectural details including fireplace mantels (fireplaces are not functional) that reflect its 19th century character. A rare chance to re-imagine and restore of piece of Boston history in one of its historic neighborhoods.
