    What's special

    Large backyardFull basementStrong layoutNice front porch
    Riverview is a solid investment property with strong upside. It was a 3 bed / 1 bath but now converted to 2 bed / 1 bath home with approximately 1,089 sq ft, full basement, detached 2-car garage, and sits on a large .48 acre lot. The property has a nice front porch, large backyard, and strong layout for a full value-add renovation. The plan is to update it into a 3 bed / 2 bath finished home by adding a full basement bathroom, basement bedroom with egress, new roof, exterior doors, garage door, driveway concrete, drainage improvements, full interior paint, updated lighting, new flooring, kitchen upgrades with quartz countertops, backsplash, cabinet refresh, and bathroom updates. Strong as-is cash buyer opportunity or excellent fix-and-flip with solid resale upside. No wholesalers, no assignments, no daisy chains, and no marketing of this property without written permission. Proof of funds required before access. Earnest money deposit due within 24 hours of contract acceptance. Inspection period begins upon contract execution. Failure to deposit earnest money or perform according to the contract may result in cancellation. Buyer must close with no seller financing.
    What the owner loves about this home
    What I love most about the house is the quiet neighborhood and the stability of the area—most of the neighbors have been there for 30+ years, which says a lot. It’s in a great location, very close to two main streets for easy access, while still feeling private and peaceful. The lot is also a major plus—large enough to potentially build another home, which adds strong long-term value and investment potential.
