Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
222 Helen Street is a two-family duplex currently configured as a first-floor 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit and a second-floor 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit. The home features updated vinyl siding and many replaced windows, while the interior includes original woodwork and leaded glass windows. Living space includes a large double living room on the first floor with a mantel and fireplace noted as NRTC, along with a formal dining room, bedroom, full bathroom, and a kitchen with an oven and refrigerator. The upper unit offers a front living room, two bedrooms, a full bath, and an eat-in kitchen. Laundry hookups are located in the basement. The historical setup includes one heating unit, one gas meter, and one HWT, with electric still using fuses and separate meters.
The property sits on a double lot measuring 60 x 122' and includes a 2-car garage. The fully fenced yard includes maple trees described as creating a park-like setting. The garage backs up to the entrance of Theodore Roosevelt Elementary.
This is a cash-only sale due to needed repairs related to the front foyer roof, garage roof, and plumbing. The main house roof is described as being in good condition. It may also be considered as a single-family conversion, but would require a residential alteration permit and a fire code inspection to convert; contact the town for additional details. Offers will be presented as received, and showings begin immediately.
