Attention contractors or handy home buyers! Don't miss this excellent opportunity to establish sweat equity. The Putnam house is a charming and historic antique Dutch Gambrell in the lovey St. John's Prep neighborhood of Danvers. This home has high ceilings, large-scale rooms, wide pine flooring, original exposed beams, and seven fireplaces. The house is being sold as is and will not qualify for FHA financing. Vacant and easy to show. Please see all attached documents, as the property boundaries will change, and the lot will be 20, 000 sq ft+. Please take a look; this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history and make it your own.
