Though a little off the beaten track from most of the houses we tend to profile, 333 Winthrop Street grabbed our attention because it had a low price tag (of $419,000) and appeared to have some nice old bones. When we started digging a little deeper, however, we discovered the real bummer about the two-family house: The block it’s on is dominated by a stretch of unattractive newish townhouses that look like they were built as affordable housing a couple of decades ago. So while we still think the house itself has promise, the whole deal’s looking a lot less interesting to us now.
