Location! This move-in ready ranch in the desirable Outer Comstock neighborhood offers 4 bedrooms and one full bath, but could be converted back to a 3 bedroom to increase the living space. Perfect for investors due to close proximity to Syracuse University and hospitals/highways, or for an owner occupant looking for affordable one level living. The current owner rented this by the bedroom for 500.00 per room! Huge cash flow! Other highlights are vinyl windows, partially fenced yard with paver patio, off street parking and very close to public transportation. Opportunities in this area at this price are rare, so schedule your appointment today!
