Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1954 and explicitly marketed as a 'Handyman Special,' this property shows significant deferred maintenance. Key issues include visible wall and ceiling damage, unpermitted square footage, and a lack of central HVAC (relying on window/portable units). While one electrical panel is new, the overall condition requires a comprehensive rehab to address dated interiors and neglected exterior structures.
With 4 bedrooms and a spacious open floor plan, the property is well-suited for multi-generational living or large families seeking versatile interior space.
The home features two electrical panels, including one brand-new unit, providing a solid foundation for modern power demands and future renovations.
An additional 300 sq. ft. bonus room offers significant potential for use as a fifth bedroom, home office, or playroom, enhancing the home's overall utility.
Marketed as a 'Handyman Special' needing 'TLC,' the property likely requires immediate capital investment for repairs and modernization to be fully functional.
The approximately 300 sq. ft. bonus room is not permitted, which may present challenges for appraisals, financing, and future building code compliance.
