Explore the opportunity to own a crown jewel right in the heart of Prentiss Park, Portsmouth Virginia. There is no question that gentrification is taking place in the city or Portsmouth. We had the opportunity watch this neighborhood go from segregated back in the 1960's (as our parents could only view the home at night during sale as they were the first people of color to live in the neighborhood), to being all people of color and ultimately now all walks of life are together living in harmony. Truly a wonderful event we thought we would never see in our lifetime. The city of Portsmouth has grown exponentially with a brand-new casino, more job opportunities and more land development currently taking place. This home is located on three lots unlike the other homes in the area. What does this mean? Perfect opportunity for an investor to gut or teardown and rebuild a multihomed property to potentially triple your profit. The choice is yours. Don't miss the opportunity.
