About This Home

Situated on over 2 acres in Mertztown, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath single detached home offers plenty of space and potential for the right buyer. The property sits on a corner lot and features a large pole building previously used as a garage, providing excellent space for vehicles, equipment, storage, a workshop, or other permitted uses. The home also includes a spacious family room addition off the rear, adding valuable living space to the original floor plan. The interior is dated and in need of extensive updating and renovations, making this a great opportunity for an investor, contractor, or buyer looking to renovate a property to their own taste. With over 2 acres, a substantial outbuilding, and a detached home ready for transformation, this property offers a unique opportunity for buyers looking for space and potential.
