Property Description

The seller is actively seeking offers and is willing to consider owner financing for well-qualified buyers. Rich in Fall River history, this grand property at 216 Prospect Street was once owned by Charlie Buffinton, the first famous professional baseball player to emerge from the city. Rich in character and filled with potential, the home is currently configured as a four-family residence but also presents a unique opportunity to be restored to an impressive single-family estate. The first-floor unit, ideal for an owner-occupant, offers approximately 1,800 square feet of living space and showcases many of the home’s original architectural details. It features a spacious kitchen, formal dining room, elegant living room with beautiful leaded-glass accents, two bedrooms, and two full bathrooms. Situated on a prominent corner lot, the property also offers a detached two-car garage, ample off-street parking, and space to create a future patio or outdoor entertaining area. Whether you envision restoring a historic single-family estate, occupying one unit while generating rental income, or expanding your investment portfolio, this distinctive property could be your home run.
