Bring your vision and development expertise to 522 Williams Avenue North. This property features an exceptional commuter-friendly location just blocks from major employment and entertainment hubs, including the Boeing Renton factory and the premier shopping, dining, and theaters at The Landing. Please note that this property is currently configured as an unpermitted duplex and is being sold with active, open code violations with the City of Renton. The home is strictly being sold "as-is, where-is" with all faults, and the buyer will be entirely responsible for resolving all code compliance issues, permitting, and structural remedies with the city after closing. Whether your plan is to return the structure to its legal single-family status, complete the necessary multi-family permitting, or utilize the R-8 zoned lot for a clean redevelopment project, the potential in this high-demand rental and resale market is substantial. Buyers are strongly encouraged to conduct all thorough due diligence regarding zoning, building capacity, and code enforcement requirements directly with the City of Renton prior to submitting an offer. Don't miss a chance to secure a highly functional footprint in a rapidly developing pocket of Renton. Sale subject to approval by King County Superior Court.
