**Property Description for 3400 Merle Drive, Baltimore, Maryland 21244**

Welcome to 3400 Merle Drive, a charming three-bedroom, two-bathroom single-family home brimming with potential! This three-level property offers ample space and is situated in a fantastic location with easy access to the 695 Beltway and just a short walk from Liberty Road.

While the home is in generally good condition, it does need some repairs and TLC, including new carpeting and a fresh coat of paint. With a little bit of sweat equity, this house could truly shine, making it a great opportunity for first-time homebuyers looking to customize their space or for investors seeking a promising property.

Priced at what is owed on a reverse mortgage, this property is listed **AS-IS**, as the seller is unable to fund any upgrades or repairs. However, recent neighborhood comps show much higher values, underscoring the untapped potential of this home.

The property includes a rear exit, providing additional convenience and access. The layout offers flexibility, with three bedrooms that can accommodate a growing family or offer space for a home office or guest room. The full basement and additional storage options are perfect for organizing and maintaining a clutter-free living space.

Don't miss out on this diamond in the rough! If you're looking for a home to make your own or a solid investment, this is your chance. Only serious buyers, please. Schedule a viewing today and see the potential that 3400 Merle Drive has to offer!
