WOW! What a large piece of property for the price. This home is a very large five bedroom 1.5 bathroom that is in need of rehabbing. The grossly undermarket price reflects the work that needs to be completed. Once you put the finishing touches on this home, you will have a stately grand residence in one of the most desirable areas in the city. If you are seeking a rehab that you can really sink your teeth into this is the one. One of its most desirable assets is the fact that this home offers two to three car offstreet parking. This is a rare amenity in this part of town. There is a lovely front porch, a rear deck, side Florida room and a backyard. Each room is extremely large and offers the large and growing family plenty of room or it offers the investor the opportunity to own a large solid rental property in a great and highly desirable area. Hurry, hurry, hurry and bring your buyers to this wonderful opportunity. The home is easy to show on lockbox. Call the appointment center.
