    Located in the heart of Lawrence’s highly sought-after Five Towns area, 243 Allen Street presents a rare opportunity to renovate, expand, or completely reimagine a single-family home on an oversized approximately 6,250 square foot lot in the Town of Hempstead. Whether you are an end user looking to create your forever home or an investor searching for your next value-add project, this property offers the location, lot size, and upside that buyers are constantly searching for but rarely find. Currently configured as a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a dedicated home office, the residence features a flexible layout including a first-floor bedroom and full bathroom, an eat-in kitchen, unfinished basement, private driveway, and detached garage. The existing home offers approximately 1,278 square feet of interior space, while the generous lot opens the door to substantial expansion potential, subject to permits and approvals. Buyers are encouraged to verify all zoning and building possibilities with their architect, but the opportunity here is clear, renovate, expand, modernize, and unlock the full value of this Lawrence property. Imagine creating a custom chef’s kitchen with oversized island, a luxurious primary suite, soaring ceilings, open-concept living spaces, finished basement recreation area, home gym, media room, or an incredible backyard designed for entertaining. In a neighborhood surrounded by higher-priced renovated homes and new construction, this property offers the chance to build equity while tailoring the home to your exact lifestyle and vision. Perfectly situated near the LIRR, JFK Airport, major highways, shopping, supermarkets, restaurants, parks, schools, houses of worship, and the beaches of Long Beach and Atlantic Beach, the location combines suburban comfort with exceptional convenience. Lawrence and the surrounding Five Towns continue to see strong demand from buyers seeking larger homes, private outdoor space, and long-term value within close proximity to Manhattan and Brooklyn. Bring your contractor, architect, and imagination. Opportunities like this do not come around often.
