Property details
About 720 Congress St
CITY OWNED non conforming 3 Family. Huge, property just over 3000 square feet. Nearly a quarter acre parcel. This is the place to renovate. Two choices here, the slower path is to work with the city for a variance to keep it as a three family, or faster renovate it to a 4 bed 2 bath over a 4 bed 2 bath. You've got the room to design a monster money maker. Priced to consider a full gut. Take a look, build a scope of work and the estimate to complete the work. This estimate will work as the reserve number you'll need on top of your offer amount.
