Amazing opportunity to live in a classic Fairhaven home! Take a look at this wonderful four bedroom one bath turn-of-the-century home just a couple blocks out of downtown Fairhaven. Original wood floors, wood trim, and built-ins. This home has been owned by a local church since the mid 60s. Now time for it to be brought back to his full potential. There is one bedroom on the main floor and a full bathroom. Beautiful living room and dining room with the classic reading nook. Upstairs are three more good size bedrooms with rare walk-in closets. There is also a nice sun filled landing with peekaboo views of B’Ham Bay. Gas forced air, gas fired instant hot water tank. This home could be considered a cosmetic fixer or potential masterpiece!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
