Let’s talk about getting you home. Tucked into New Bedford’s North End, this well-loved Cape has been in the same family for 50 years and it shows in all the right ways. Step inside to gorgeous original hardwood floors, a bright, open feel, an updated kitchen with granite counters, and two generously sized bedrooms right on the main level. The bath has been refreshed, the windows have been replaced, and outside you’ll find a corner lot, off-street parking, a private backyard and even a mature grapevine. Then head upstairs and let your imagination take over. Office? Studio? Hobby space? Storage? There’s bonus space ready for your ideas. Comfortable, cared for and full of possibility, 5 Brewster is the kind of home you can make your own.

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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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.
