Overview
Description
Great investment opportunity! This property is conveniently located and the lot is easy to get in or out of the driveway as the deep yard offers plenty of room to turn around by the newer, 2015 garage.
The great room off of the kitchen is long (19 feet!), so it can easily manage dining and living areas or an office & laundry center with a little work to relocate the laundry. Another idea for this space is a first floor primary bedroom & bath. With the spacious floor plan, you decide the layout!
The kitchen and flooring were updated in 2012, allowing you to focus on other projects.
The front porch is deep, you could easily sit and sip while enjoying the scenic view of Fort Hill!
Handy to stores, the Caribou Wellness/Recreation Center, Cary Medical Center, or schools.
The tin ceilings, historic stair handrail, and original trim create character and charm through the home. An unheated mudroom/entry off the back of the kitchen makes for great coat/boot storage and easy access from the garage into the home.
This affordable home will currently qualify for cash, some conventional loans, or construction loan due to a foundation wall that needs to be addressed (estimate posted in the Documents Section) as well as some window replacements, a bit of drywall touch-up, and shoring of front porch.
This property would make a great fix & flip or fix & rent home, since the price is starting out so reasonably. Don't miss this easy one! *NOTE - some photos have been virtually staged/renovated to showcase this home's potential. Photos are labeled accordingly.
