About this home

Opportunity knocks for the savvy investor or contractor looking for their next project. CASH BUYERS! This expansive five-bedroom property was previously configured as a three-family and offers tremendous potential for those ready to bring the property back to life. Whether you envision a full gut renovation to create a large single-family residence or explore the possibility of converting it back to a multi-unit investment property, the options here are compelling. The home requires a complete remodel. With the right vision and improvements, this property could become a strong income-producing asset or a standout resale opportunity. Generous square footage, flexible layout possibilities, and its prior multi-family configuration make this a rare chance to add value in a meaningful way. If you’ve been waiting for a true value-add project with serious upside, this is it.
