This Prime Development Asset in the historic Melrose Hill district is listed at $1,350,000, aligning perfectly with its $1,350,000 Fair Market Value. While the property carries a Condition Rating of 5 due to significant deferred maintenance, the primary value is anchored by the 7,280-square-foot lot and Zoning for nine townhomes. The location offers robust residential demand, supported by proximity to John Marshall Senior High School and Kingsley Elementary. Delivered entirely vacant, this site provides immediate flexibility for high-density construction. This is a strategic acquisition for Real Estate Developers or Value-Add Investors.

Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1921, this property shows significant signs of age and deferred maintenance. The kitchen is severely outdated with worn cabinetry, old appliances, and aged tile work. Interior photos reveal obsolete wall heaters, surface-mounted electrical conduits, and basic finishes that do not meet modern standards. The listing's heavy emphasis on development potential and the possibility of building nine townhomes indicates that the existing structure has reached the end of its functional lifespan and requires substantial rehabilitation or demolition.
The 7,280-square-foot lot offers a rare opportunity to develop up to nine townhomes or multiple units in the rapidly growing Melrose Hill area.
The property will be delivered entirely vacant, providing immediate flexibility for developers to break ground or for owner-occupiers to renovate without tenant relocation hurdles.
Nestled in the trendy Melrose Hill neighborhood near Paramount Studios and Melrose Blvd, the property sits in a high-demand pocket known for new construction and appreciation.
Built in 1921, the century-old structure likely requires significant capital improvements to systems and seismic safety if the existing buildings are retained.
