Opportunity awaits for the right buyer. This 2-story home, originally built in 1920, offers solid potential for someone ready to restore or renovate. The property features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an enclosed front porch, and a 2-stall garage. Vinyl siding, a newer roof, and some updated exterior doors have already been completed. Inside, the home will require significant updating, including windows, flooring, and general renovation throughout. For buyers with vision and the skills to bring an older home back to life, there is original woodwork and wood flooring that could potentially be restored. The detached 2-stall garage is a strong asset and adds excellent value to the property. The home is being sold AS-IS and priced below assessed value, making it an attractive option for investors, flippers, or buyers looking for a project. If you’re looking for a fixer-upper with character and potential, this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
