Investors take note! This adorable cottage with tremendous potential is located on a quiet road in Crescent Hill. It feels like the country but is minutes from Brownsboro Road. Built in 1920, this shotgun is an ideal candidate for conversion to a camel back. The roof is relatively new, and the existing bathroom has been updated. The home also includes a recently constructed shed in the back yard for additional storage.
