Opportunity awaits on this approximately 1.56-acre property in Milford featuring a spacious ranch-style home, and additional carport space. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers approximately 1,588 square feet and presents a great opportunity for buyers looking to renovate, update, or invest in a property with land and potential. The home is not move-in ready and will require repairs and cosmetic improvements, but offers a functional layout and several existing features that could shine again with the right vision and updates. Inside, you'll find generously sized living areas, a fireplace, large windows providing natural light, and a layout that offers flexibility for redesign and modernization. The kitchen and baths are dated, and portions of the home reflect deferred maintenance, creating an ideal project for investors, renovators, or buyers looking to build sweat equity. Outside, the expansive lot provides room for gardening, hobbies, storage, or outdoor enjoyment. The additional covered parking add useful workspace and utility rarely found at this price point and lot size. Property is being sold strictly as-is. Any inspections will be for informational purposes only. Conveniently located near Route 1, Route 15, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities while still offering a more spacious setting with room to grow. This home will not qualify for FHA financing and if securing a mortgage will likely need a renovation loan.
