Property Description
Opportunity knocks with this Cape Cod-style home offering 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and loads of potential. With approximately 1,200 square feet of living space and a bedroom and full bath on the main level, this home sits on an oversized lot made up of two parcels-perfect for those seeking additional outdoor space or future expansion options. While the property needs significant renovation and may not qualify for traditional financing, it offers a blank canvas for those with vision. Whether you're a seasoned investor, handy homeowner, or rehab enthusiast, this one is worth a look. The newer two-car garage is a bonus and provides great value. Located near schools, public pools, parks, shopping, and dining, the home sits in a convenient, accessible neighborhood that continues to see steady demand. Bring your tools and your imagination-this is a true value-add opportunity waiting to be transformed. Priced to sell. Cash or renovation loans recommended. Property being sold as-is, seller will make no repairs.
