This offering presents a fully occupied three-family residential building in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood, consisting of three one-bedroom units with a clear value-add opportunity. One unit has been fully renovated and rents for $3,550 per month, while the two unrenovated units average approximately $2,500 per month. Because all three units share the same layout, the renovated unit shows what the others can achieve: renovating the remaining two could add roughly $1,050 per unit per month, or about $25,000 in annual gross rent. Meanwhile, the property generates in-place income from day one. The building is just steps from Cambridge Street and Massachusetts General Hospital, one of the region's largest employers, and a short walk to both the Red Line (Charles/MGH) and Green Line (Government Center) MBTA stations, giving residents easy access to downtown, Cambridge, and the greater Boston area. A deep employer base nearby, including MGH, the State House, Government Center, and the Financial District, supports consistent rental demand for one-bedroom units, and residents also have the shops, restaurants, and amenities of Charles Street and the West End close by. With stable occupancy, a proven value-add business plan with meaningful upside, this property is an attractive investment in one of Boston's most desirable and supply-constrained submarkets.

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 MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date.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