About the Listing 3469 - 020218

This 1840 Cape Cod property presents a rare opportunity for buyers looking to restore, renovate, or reimagine a home with timeless New England character. Featuring 8 rooms, 3 bedrooms, and 1 full bathroom, this classic residence provides a flexible layout that can be adapted to a wide range of needs. The home is being sold as is and requires updates, making it an attractive option for those interested in adding value through renovation. Located in the town of Porter, the property sits in a convenient in-town setting within walking distance to local amenities such as the laundromat, library, town office, and a nearby convenience store. Its traditional Cape Cod style and 19th-century architecture provide a strong foundation for restoration, whether for future owner occupancy, rental potential, or resale. The interior's room count allows for multiple possible configurations, home office setups, or expanded living areas once updated. The spacious backyard adds additional outdoor space for future landscaping, gardening, or other improvements as permitted. With its age, character, and location, this property stands out as a strong candidate for buyers seeking a project with long-term potential. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence regarding condition, systems, and intended use. Opportunities to purchase an 1840 Cape Cod home with this level of possibility are increasingly uncommon, this property provides the chance to bring new life to a historic New England structure in a convenient village setting.
