Overview

This mixed-use multifamily property consists of two residential units on a single site. Unit 1 is a 4-bedroom, 2-bath layout, and Unit 2 is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout, providing two distinct dwelling configurations within the building. The property is identified as a duplex-style income asset and is positioned to support continued residential use while also fitting within the property’s mixed-use zoning framework.

The site is located at 155 Purchase St in New Bedford, in the MUB (Mixed-Use Business) zoning district. The public remarks describe the property as being near downtown, the waterfront, local shops and restaurants, and major transportation routes, supporting convenient access to surrounding day-to-day needs.

For buyers, the combination of two residential units and MUB zoning can appeal to investors seeking an income-generating property, as well as owner-occupants who may prefer living in one unit while renting the other. Developers and value-add buyers may also view the asset as a redevelopment candidate consistent with the mixed-use business zoning designation.
