Contractors Special! Tucked at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac this home is a rare find for buyers, investors, and contractors alike. It offers one of the largest floor plans in the area: 3,207 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a large bonus room, and a generous lot. Bring your vision, your contractor, and your design ideas, and turn great bones into something truly your own. Inside, the layout is already built for living well, so your investment goes into finishes, not reinventing the floor plan. A sunken family room anchors the main level with character, while a separate living room and dining area give you flexibility for hosting intimate dinners or a full house. The expansive primary bedroom offers a private balcony overlooking the backyard and pool, the perfect perch for quiet mornings once it’s refreshed to your taste. Downstairs, the rumpus room opens directly outside for easy indoor-outdoor flow. Step outside and the lot delivers with rolling-hill views a private pool, and a gazebo, ready to become your weekend retreat with some care and updating. 136 Chinquapin Court has the size, the setting, and the potential. Add your vision, and it’s ready to shine.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1985 and explicitly marketed as a 'Contractors Special,' this property requires a full rehab. The images reveal significant neglect, including a stagnant green pool, dated bathrooms with missing cabinetry, and worn interior surfaces. At nearly 40 years old without recent renovations, it meets the criteria for poor condition due to the need for extensive updates and potential safety/maintenance issues.
At 3,207 square feet, this property offers one of the largest floor plans in the subdivision, providing ample space with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a versatile rumpus room.
Tucked at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac, the generous lot features a private pool, gazebo, and scenic rolling-hill views, offering excellent privacy and outdoor potential.
The home is conveniently located within walking distance (approximately 0.37 miles) of both Hercules Middle School and Hercules High School, a major draw for families.
Marketed as a 'Contractors Special,' the property requires significant capital investment and vision to update finishes and address deferred maintenance throughout.
