Located on the West Side, this single-family home presents a fantastic opportunity for investors, renovators, or buyers eager to build instant equity. Offering convenient one-level living, the home features 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a versatile bonus room ideal for a home office, workshop, hobby space, or additional storage.
Several major updates have already been completed, including updated electrical wiring and service panel, new flooring, and a full kitchen demolition—providing a clean slate to design the kitchen of your dreams. The roof and gutters are less than 10 years old and remain in good condition.
Outside, a long concrete driveway offers plenty of off-street parking, while the spacious backyard provides ample room for entertaining, gardening, recreation, or future expansion.
The home will need new windows, a furnace (existing ductwork is already in place), and a hot water heater, making it an ideal project for someone looking to customize and add value. With much of the heavy lifting already started, this property is ready for its next chapter.
Property is being sold as-is.
