Excellent investment opportunity to buy and rehab a home in rapidly appreciating Kensington area. This is a wonderfully quiet block that was created by being on a double T intersection, homes only on one side of the street with McKinley Park and Playground at the top of the street. Very little car traffic and extensive street parking available. Home is 3 bedroom and 1 bathroom with cozy front porch and small rear yard. Property has solid bones and needs renovations throughout. This is a previous sheriff tax sale property. Settlement date has to be Jan 13th, 2026, or later for title insurance purposes.
