Property Description

Spacious 6-Bedroom Home Across from a Park - Investor Special! Welcome to your next investment opportunity! This spacious 6-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is perfectly positioned across the street from a friendly, well-kept park, offering a charming view and a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms on the upper level, offering ample space for a growing household. The main level features a convenient half-bath, for guests and everyday living. The finished basement includes 2 additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a separate private entrance-a perfect setup for a guest suite, in-law quarters, or potential rental income. While the home does need some TLC-and minor restoration from prior water damage in the basement (the leak has been professionally repaired)-the HVAC has been recently repaired and it presents a fantastic opportunity for a savvy investor or homeowner ready to add value and build equity. Sold strictly AS-IS, this home qualifies for FHA, Conventional financing, FHA 203K loans, or cash offers. The seller is very motivated and open to making a deal!
