Property Description
CASH BUYERS: THE DEAL YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR IS ON EPHRATA'S CHURCH AVE Every investor knows the good ones go fast and quietly. This is one of them. A semi-detached home on a quiet stretch of Church Ave, a short walk from downtown Ephrata, home of the largest street fair in Pennsylvania. Underneath the work it needs, the character is all here: hardwood floors, exposed wood ceiling beams, covered front and back porches, a privacy-fenced yard, off-street parking, and an expandable third floor with real upside. Good bones. A real neighborhood. A location people actually want to live in. Sold strictly as-is, and priced to reflect it. This is a straightforward play for someone who can move with cash and no contingencies: buy right, put in the work, and own a place in one of Lancaster County's most walkable small towns for well under what the finished comparables say. The numbers are clear. Tour the home, run the numbers, and you'll see the value. Cash, no contingencies, quick close. If that's you, don't wait - homes like this don't reach the open market often, and they don't sit when they do.
