Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1895, this Shingle-style duplex contains two side-by-side residences, each with three finished levels and an unfinished walk-out basement with 8'10" ceilings. Period elements in the right-hand unit include exposed brick, bow windows, detailed millwork and high ceilings. Its kitchen was redesigned in 2004, and a dining-room door opens onto a rear deck. The left-hand unit has served as a rental and requires substantial upgrades, including removal of knob-and-tube wiring.

The property occupies an 8,760-square-foot lot with mature shade trees and planted areas. Menotomy Rocks Park is three blocks away, and Arlington Center is a half-mile away. Updates include a 2011 electrical panel, a 2019 water heater and a Burnham steam boiler approximately eight years old. The roof is 19 years old, and the exterior shingles were painted about five years ago.
