As of May 2025If you’re looking for your next flip, rental, or sweat equity project, this one’s got all the right ingredients. Located in a solid neighborhood with strong upside potential, this home just needs the right buyer to bring it back to life.The layout is fantastic — walk through the three-seasons front porch into a wide open living, dining, and kitchen area. It’s already set up for the kind of open-concept living buyers love. Off the kitchen, you’ll find two oversized bedrooms with great closet space — no need to rework the floor plan here. The kitchen has a cozy eat-in area in the back, plus direct access to a fenced-in backyard and a 1-car detached garage with alley access. Yes, it needs some TLC — but the potential is real. Whether you're thinking of a fix-and-flip or a buy-and-hold investment, this property checks a lot of boxes: great layout, good bedroom sizes, off-street parking, and a solid yard. With the right updates, it could easily become a desirable home in a growing area. Don't miss your chance to turn this diamond in the rough into something special. At this price point, it’s a no-brainer for the savvy investor. 13 Mo HWA Platinum Home Warranty included!
