RARE FIND! Large, well-cared-for 3-family near the Arnold Arboretum with owner-occupant, house-hack, investor, or buy-and-hold flexibility. One apartment is expected to be available for occupancy or re-leasing, creating immediate optionality. Set on a large, sun-facing lot with an oversized private backyard, off-street parking, and outdoor space to relax. Professionally managed and cared for by the same family for many years, with strong rental history and consistent resident appeal. Units offer similar floor plans, large rooms, hardwood floors, separate heat/electric, a newer rubber roof, and a high-ceiling basement. Convenient to Forest Hills, Roslindale Village, the Arnold Arboretum, Longwood, universities, Downtown Boston, and transit. Rent roll, expense summary, utility responsibility, and systems information available upon request.

Estimates — not financial advice

These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
