The Numbers

This home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 2,390 square feet of living space. That's a true four-bedroom footprint — space for a family to spread out, a real home office (or two), guest space, and rooms that can change as your life does. In a market where so many Lowell listings are tight two- and three-bedrooms, 2,390 square feet is breathing room.

What It's Like to Live in Lowell

Lowell is the Merrimack Valley's mill city turned modern comeback story — a downtown full of restaurants, live music, and theater, the Lowell National Historical Park canals, UMass Lowell, and a commuter rail ride straight into Boston's North Station. Neighborhoods like this one give you the part people actually move here for: a street that feels like a neighborhood, with the whole city — its food scene, its festivals, its ballpark summers — minutes away. It's city living with a yard, at a price point that still makes sense.

Why Four-Bedroom Lowell Homes Move

Buyers shopping in Greater Lowell consistently tell us the same thing: they want space without leaving the city behind. A 4-bed, 2.5-bath home at $675,000 in Lowell competes against far less house for far more money closer to Boston — which is exactly why well-kept Lowell properties like this one draw attention fast.

Room for the Way You Actually Live

Four bedrooms and two and a half baths isn't just a spec sheet — it's a daily-life upgrade. It's the difference between a home office carved out of a dining room and a real office with a door. It's guests staying over without an air mattress in the living room, kids with rooms of their own, and a primary suite that doesn't share a bathroom with the whole house. At 2,390 square feet, 48 Cannington St is built for households that have outgrown smaller footprints but love Lowell and refuse to leave it. And that's really the story here: this is a stay-in-Lowell home. So many buyers assume that the move-up house has to be in the suburbs. A four-bedroom at $675,000, in a city with this much going on — downtown dining, the Folk Festival, River Hawks hockey, the commuter rail — says otherwise. If your family needs space and your heart is in the Mill City, this is the listing you've been waiting for someone to point out. Want to see it in person?
