What a buy! This 3 Bedroom/2bath home flooded during Hurricane Ian, but all the hard work is already done. All you need to do is put it back together to your own taste. Priced with plenty of room for you to complete this home without being over invested, this is a blank canvas with tons of potential. Great schools-_Sweetwater Elem, Silver Sands and Spruce Creek, this home would make a great primary home or rental! Open floor plan, spacious rooms and a one car garage! Just minutes to the beach, shopping & dining, Palmer School of Chiropractic and more! All information taken from the tax record and, while deemed reliable, cannot be guaranteed.
