About This Home

As of August 2017

***Open House Sunday June 18 from 1:00pm to 5:00pm*** Great opportunity to own a 4-bed, 1.5 bath home less than a half-mile to Notre Dame in North Shore Triangle that could serve as a primary residence, a short-term rental, or a student rental. The current owner has used this as a student rental for the past several years easily earning between $800-$1200+ a month. After the tenants vacated last month, the seller paid to refinish the hardwood floors, replace the carpet in the dining room, clean the rest of the carpet in the home, and had a deep clean performed on the whole home. The seller is aware the home may need some cosmetic upgrades and has priced the home accordingly. Taxes are $2,685.12 without exemptions; homestead and mortgage exemptions would bring taxes down to approx $1,238 (tax information not warranted, buyer to verify).
