This charming 1BR/1BA home sits on a 1/2-acre PLUS lot with a small "ditch" canal with Gulf access. It features an eat-in kitchen, spacious living area, and an indoor laundry. Enjoy front, side, and rear porches and a steel building with a garage door. The home was flooded but has had extensive remediation done - this is a charming old Florida Style home that is ready for your finishing touches and could also be a great rental.
This is a Short Sale subject to existing lender's approval which could result in delays. Here is your chance to own a home right by the river with a fireplace!! Nice large lot with plenty of storage space!
