224 Marlborough Street

This is a 1900-era bungalow being sold as-is, with a price that reflects it. The interior is largely untouched from the 1970s and 80s — original carpet, wallpaper, and fixtures throughout. The coffered ceiling beams in the living room are a genuine period detail, and per the listing hardwood floors sit under the carpet. The kitchen has oak cabinets from the 1990s and white appliances. The bathroom got a newer step-in shower but the rest of the room is old. Furnace is 2022. The backyard is the clearest practical asset here — deeply fenced, with a newer patio, two metal sheds, and a wide driveway with rear gate access. Buyers should budget for a full interior renovation. The as-is sale condition and the listing context — first-time buyers, renovators, investors — signals that clearly. What you're paying for is the lot size, the bones, and the location.
