    This distinctive A-frame property presents a compelling investment opportunity, ideally located near Island Creek—a peaceful canal that enhances the area’s charm and appeal. Offering 1,764 finished square feet, the home features five spacious bedrooms and one full bathroom, making it adaptable for a variety of uses, including long-term rentals or vacation stays. Situated on a generous 0.38-acre lot, the property includes a screened-in porch and ample outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining. The home is in need of significant renovations, providing the perfect canvas for investors or buyers with vision to restore and customize it to their preferences. While it is not directly waterfront, access to the nearby canal offers a unique advantage for outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking a serene environment. Properties near water often command higher interest, stronger rental potential, and long-term appreciation. Additional features such as the existing fireplace add character and warmth, while off-street parking ensures convenience for residents and guests. The aluminum siding contributes to lower maintenance requirements over time. Beyond its investment potential, this property also presents an excellent opportunity to be transformed into a private residence.
