Fixer from top to bottom — but a true charmer with tons of potential if you’ve got imagination! This authentic 1948 brick home sits on a flat and usable 1.4-acre lot with sweeping views and offers 1,851 sq. ft. of space to reimagine. Several outbuildings add to the opportunity, though the property will need significant work, including replacing the metal roof to restoring the empty pool. Still, in a market where prices can feel out of reach, this is your chance to own something attainable and put your own sweat equity into it. Perfect for contractors or handyman types who don’t mind a work in progress, this one is being sold strictly as-is, cash only — no exceptions. With vision and effort, it’s ready to be transformed from a swan back into the prince it was meant to be.
