This includes 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths in the finished basement, and 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath on the main floor. The home also offers an open floor plan, a spacious modern kitchen, dual-pane windows, and a large backyard with a patio. There is an open code enforcement notice to legalize the finished basement and the upstairs third bedroom and will be the responsibility of the buyer. The home will not qualify for conventional financing due to its overall condition and the open code violation. Only cash or hard money offers will be accepted.
