Fantastic opportunity for an investor, developer, or owner-occupant. Large lot with zoned PSR1 with over 12,000 square feet. Two units on the property. The house is in great shape and has been rented for several years. Parts of the property can use TLC. This is a minor/major fixer depending on your needs. Great investment opportunity.
