Come see this charming Cape, full of potential and located in a highly desirable neighborhood near Berkshire Community College, with convenient access to Pittsfield State Forest. Many of the home's mechanical systems have already been updated, providing a great starting point for a new owner ready to bring their own vision and style to the property. While the home would benefit from cosmetic updates and some TLC, it offers several unique features that are hard to find! Highlights include a spacious two-car attached garage, a HUGE workshop just off the front porch, and an open finished second floor offering possibilities for future living space. Situated on a corner lot, the property offers a terrific location while still maintaining a surprisingly private feel.
