Property Description
Discover a prime investment opportunity in the heart of Chillum! This charming 4-bedroom, 1-bathroom townhouse, built in 1930, boasts a spacious 2,002 sq. ft. of potential. With a contemporary design and durable brick front, this property is poised for appreciation in a growing neighborhood. Strategically located less than a mile from a bus stop and within 1-3 miles of a metro/subway station, it offers excellent accessibility for future tenants. The poured concrete basement provides additional storage or potential for conversion into extra living space, enhancing rental income possibilities. Off-street parking and a basement garage add convenience for residents, while the absence of a pool reduces maintenance costs. This property is a blank canvas, ready for your vision-whether you choose to renovate for higher returns or hold as a long-term rental. Don't miss out on this chance to capitalize on a solid investment in a thriving community! OFFERS DUE BY 10/13/2026 TUESDAY 3PM
