Property Description
Bring your vision to this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home situated on a large, partially fenced lot. While the property does need a full rehab, it offers solid bones and plenty of potential for the right buyer. Original character shines through with hardwood floors, natural woodwork, a gas fireplace, and some tilt-in windows. The structure seems solid, but the projects abound! Outside you'll find multiple porches, a patio, and a 2-car detached garage, providing plenty of space to enjoy and improve. The home is being sold AS IS, WHERE IS, with all contents remaining. A great opportunity for investors, flippers, or anyone ready to take on a full renovation. Please note anyone entering the property will be required to sign a liability waiver prior to entry.
