Calling all visionaries, investors, and renovation enthusiasts — this is the project you've been waiting for. This beautiful corner lot is shaded by gorgeous mature oaks, and offers two compelling paths forward...A full renovation, or a tear-down. This one is priced to reflect the work ahead. For the right buyer, that's exactly the appeal: a clean slate at the right basis. The added bonus is it’s in a location that absolutely justifies the investment. The bones are there. Original hardwood floors run throughout. A classic floor plan with the kind of distinct living spaces today's cookie-cutter builds rarely offer. Restore the character, modernize the systems, and you've got something special. Whether you're a homeowner ready for a true labor of love or a builder looking to capitalize on a rare opportunity, the upside here is real. Bring your contractor, bring your vision, and bring your imagination. Properties like this don't come along often in this zip code.
