About this home
Presenting an exceptional multi-family property at 17 Ward St, Worcester, MA, United States. Constructed in 1920, this distinguished residence offers 2112 square feet of refined living space, representing a unique investment opportunity in a well-established community. The residence comprises five well-proportioned bedrooms, providing ample private accommodations across its two stories. Complementing these are three full bathrooms, each designed to offer convenience and comfort for residents. Discover the potential within this well maintained multi-family residence.
Kelley Square, located between Union Station and the Canal District, is a historic and industrial Worcester neighborhood with a reworked rotary and brick-and-beam warehouses. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at Kelley Square itself, where the rotary funnels traffic past converted mill buildings, loading docks, and a tight cluster of eateries and taprooms. Crompton Collective anchors the maker-retail scene inside a former factory, while Worcester Public Market gathers local food stalls under one roof. Nearby, Polar Park adds a modern edge beside rail lines and old industrial blocks. Streetscapes mix utilitarian facades, murals, and new infill, with walkable links toward downtown and the Blackstone Canal corridor.
