This is an A-4 zoned lot. House needs major repair and will remain at no value. Great opportunity to buy a fixer upper or build a new property. Located very close to L. S. U. and downtown. Price excludes the value of the house and is only for the land but the house is included.

Potential to be a 3 bedroom, this fixer-upper house is on a large A4 zoned lot. Brand new roof and other improvements. This house needs paint throughout inside as well as kitchen and bathroom updates. Also the exterior needs paint/repair. Could be very nice once complete. Great location. Super close to LSU, downtown central business district. Atcha Bakery is just a short stroll away! Near LSU Vet School. LSU bus stop is a couple of blocks away.
