About This Home

What an excellent opportunity to own such an expansive lot, just under 3/4 acre in the Capitol Heights neighborhood South of Hubbell avenue very near to all the amenities and attractions that Altoona has to offer. The lot has mature trees and the tranquility of living in a more rural setting. Located within the Southeast Polk (SEP) school district, city water, and electric services are readily available on the lot. There is currently a home on the property that needs extensive work or removal. This is an AS-IS sale. The lot could possibly even be split upon approval. This is outside the city limits. A great location for new construction and the opportunity for an outbuilding. So many possibilities!
