Property Description
Exceptional investment opportunity on a desirable corner lot. This fenced, two-story single-family home sits on a deep lot and offers over 2,400 square feet of living space, originally configured with six bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The property also includes a full basement, providing additional room for expansion or customization. The home requires a complete renovation, making it an ideal project for experienced rehab investors seeking strong returns. Showings require a signed hold harmless agreement, and visitors should bring a flashlight due to current conditions. A minimum of twelve hours' notice is preferred for all appointments, which may be scheduled between 12:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. Cash offers only. This property presents a rare chance to reimagine a spacious home on a valuable corner lot and create significant upside potential.
