Here is an opportunity for sweat equity, you do the work; you earn the equity. This Investor Special sits on a desirable corner lot and is priced at $399,000, well below the neighborhood average selling price of between $565,000 to $650,000 due to the significant renovations needed. Handyman special, this home is being sold AS-IS and is ideal for investors or buyers looking to customize and build value. The exterior features a stone brick front, side entry two car garage, and an extra long driveway that provides ample parking space. Step inside to be greeted by grand stairs in the foyer. To the left is the formal living room, and to the right, a dedicated home office. Continue into the kitchen with an island, which flows into the family room featuring a grand fireplace and cathedral ceilings perfect for open concept living. There's also a formal dining area ideal for entertaining and family gatherings. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, including a spacious owner’s suite with walk-in closets, a private lounge area (almost a great room in itself), and large windows bringing in tons of natural light. The three additional bedrooms are generously sized and share a full hallway bath. The partially finished basement adds even more space and potential. Outside, the yard is expansive, thanks to the corner lot placement, offering tons of room for outdoor enjoyment. This property is in need of significant upgrades and is not suitable for FHA or VA financing. Conventional, cash, or renovation loan buyers only. Investor alert! This is your chance to bring this home back to its full potential and enjoy a strong return on investment. Book your tour today opportunities like this don’t last!
