Welcome to 40 Bowdoin Street, a meticulously maintained two-family home in Medford's sought-after Tufts University neighborhood. Perfect for owner-occupants or investors, this turnkey property features exceptional curb appeal with a brick front and cedar impression siding. Offering 12 rooms, 6 bedrooms, and 3 full bathrooms, both units include spacious layouts, central air, gas cooking, gas heat, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and separate in-unit laundry. A walk-up attic, nearly the size of the second floor, offers expansion potential, while the full basement provides additional possibilities, subject to buyer due diligence and local approvals. Two off-street parking spaces and a prime location near Tufts University, public transportation, major highways, parks, restaurants, and shopping complete this outstanding opportunity.
