This is a cash-only quick close opportunity. There is a massive upside to this deal, with tons of instant equity. The home needs TLC but has the potential to a very nice and spacious home for the person with vision and some infusion of cash for updates. Built-in 2009 and last sold for 1.25 million in 2017. The custom-built manor-style home sits on 2.7 acres and features 5 Bedrooms, 6 full bathrooms and, a powder room. The first floor consists of an oversized entry foyer, office, dining room, living room, kitchen w/ a six-burner Viking stove, double Viking Ovens, SubZero refrigerator, granite countertops, large cabinets, an eating area, a large family room connected to the kitchen area, a master bedroom suite, in-law quarters, large closet spaces, pantry, laundry room, with interior access to the attached two-car garage as well as several doors to the covered rear paver patios. The rear patio features a brick oven and plenty of space to expand this entertaining space, maybe even install that pool oasis? The Second floor has three bedrooms all with their own bathroom as well as very large sitting area with a balcony overlooking the backyard. As if this is not enough space, the basement is finished but needs some repairs. There was a burst pipe under the laundry. In the basement, there is an existing theater room, a perfect spot for a small brick accented kitchen or wine cellar, space for a bar, which has the plumbing all ready to be hooked up, a TV room, a craft area as well as a play area and storage space-this lower level is huge. It also has an oversized stairwell to the backyard with its own patio nook area. Lastly, there is a detached 2 car garage, gated front driveway as well as a circular drive that goes behind the detached garage and near the side entrance. The home has a 16 camera security system so all angles are covered, is close to shopping, corporate centers, a short drive to the turnpike as well as within blocks of the local airfield. This opportunity does not come along that often and will not be around long as the property needs to close before September 22, 2020
