Storybook circa-1851 two-family cottage with flexible single-family potential, set on a picturesque cobblestone lane that feels reminiscent of Nantucket or Newport in historic New Bedford. Located near the Whaling National Historical Park, downtown waterfront, restaurants, galleries, shops, museums, seasonal ferry service to Martha’s Vineyard/Nantucket, and commuter rail to Boston. First floor offers sun-filled living room, kitchen, updated bath, bedroom, and is vacant, creating potential for owner-occupant financing. Upper unit includes kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, full bath with skylight, plus heated third-level bonus space with sleeping areas. Upper unit rented at $2,400/month through mid-October, and both units have produced above-market furnished mid-term rents. Original plank floors and period woodwork add warmth, while paver patios with fire pit and string lighting create inviting outdoor living. Basement offers laundry, French drain, backyard access, and gym/flex space.
