10 Chance Pond RoadFranklin, NH 03235Price: $440,000

If you have ever wished your mortgage could get a little help paying itself, 10 Chance Pond Road in Franklin, NH is listening. This large three unit multi-family gives you 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2 half baths, plus the kind of flexibility that makes spreadsheets feel slightly more fun. It's just minutes to downtown Franklin, 20 miles to Concord, and less than an hour to Loon Mountain. Unit one is on the first floor, with two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. Unit two is also on the first floor, with one bedroom and 1.5 bathrooms. Unit three is on the second floor, with two bedrooms and one bathroom, which makes a "live in one unit and rent the others" setup feel very real, without needing a corkboard and red string. This property gives you choices. Use it as a true three unit setup, and take advantage of the flexibility of a property that can be a three-unit, where you can house hack, and rent two units out, while living in one. Or, open it up to have one huge single-family home. All three kitchens have been updated with new cabinetry, fresh paint throughout, and updated bathrooms; so you're not starting your story with a weekend of regrets, and twelve trips to the hardware store. The layout keeps options open, whether you want income, space, or both. Outside, you get 0.55 acres with a flat side yard, a sloping front yard, and a large barn, ready for storage, hobbies, or that one project you swear will be organized this time. There's plenty of parking, which means guests can actually show up without sending the “where do I park?” text from the end of the street. And, if your plan changes later, you don't have to start over. The setup can stay three units, or shift into one sizable home. Forced hot air heat with natural gas, public water, and public sewer keeps the systems simple. Come see it in person, and decide if you want one unit to live in and two to rent, or a setup that can flex with you as life evolves.
