An excellent fit for an owner-occupant ready to build sweat equity, or an investor looking for a quick-turnaround rehab. 7536 S Damen offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, with the layout to add a third bedroom and a second bath - meaningful upside for whoever gets there first. Solid brick construction with original hardwood floors throughout that can be preserved and refinished rather than replaced - good bones to build on, and real character you can't put back once it's gone. Set on a lot of over 4,000 square feet, the property features a side drive and a backyard primed for a garage and outdoor living space. Off-street parking is hard to come by on this stretch, and the drive is already in place. Sold as-is. Bring your contractor and your imagination. Properties with this much runway don't sit long - schedule your showing today.
