MULTIPLE OFFERS -- Please submit highest and best by noon on Wednesday, 5/27 -- Attention investors, flippers, and ambitious buyers! This is the opportunity you've been waiting for. Opportunity knocks with this 3BR/2BA colonial on Brookwood Drive in the Dodgingtown area of Newtown. Set among beautifully updated homes, this home is a total time capsule from the 1980s, offering the perfect blank canvas to execute a high-return flip or build massive personal equity from day one. The property is being sold AS-IS. It has been well cared for over the years by the original owners and is clean and livable, but you may want to bring in your own inspirations and start designing your own masterpiece. Why pay a premium for someone else's design choices? With its rock-solid 80s bones, excellent layout, and premier location, you can customize every single finish to maximize your return on investment. The main level features a spacious eat-in kitchen with a center island, a formal dining room, a dedicated laundry room, and a large but cozy living room with a brick wood-burning fireplace. The primary suite is located on the main floor as well, but there is also opportunity to finish the additional attic space on the second floor and build out a owners suite there. Currently, two bedrooms, a full bath and attic space are located on the second floor. Bonus spaces include a 3 season sunroom off of the living room, and a spacious walk-out basement with plenty of storage and room for a workshop or a future finished space (direct access to the 2 car garage as well). Properties with this much upside on a premier street are few and far between. Bring your contractor, your flashlight, and your vision. Don't wait-schedule your walkthrough today and lock in this incredible value!
