Property Description
Welcome home to 740 Ocean Avenue, a spacious quintessential New England home with original hardwood floors, moldings, built-ins and attention to detail that you don't see in present-day construction. With some TLC and sweat equity, this house will shine again. The generous sized rooms flow effortlessly from one another and the generous living space allows everyone to spread out. The sunroom with walls of windows and an exterior back door will be favorite gathering spot as it has been for this long-time owner. The butler's pantry, mud room and back staircase add charm and convenience. The first floor study with fireplace and built-in bookshelves is the perfect spot for a home office. The sweeping staircase leads to 4 second floor bedrooms including a primary bedroom with en-suite bath. The 3rd floor has a modest space and also attic storage. This home sits on a larger than most 1/2 plus lot. The roof was recently replaced and a natural gas boiler, city water and sewer is super convenient. Located on beautiful Ocean Avenue in the South End of New London and only minutes to area beaches, restaurants, Lawrence and Memorial Hospital, Mitchell College and public transportation/rail service. This diamond in the rough does need some significant work including interior paint throughout but will be worth your effort. Being sold AS IS. This home may not qualify for government financing due to some peeling paint which the seller's are in the process of removing. Inquire for more info.
