Opportunity awaits with this fixer-upper situated on a corner lot in Lincoln! This property offers a fantastic layout with tons of potential for the right buyer ready to roll up their sleeves. Originally designed as a 3-bedroom home, one bedroom was later combined to create a larger front bedroom that now features its own private half bath. The primary bedroom includes a full bathroom that is also accessible from the common areas of the home, along with a spacious 6X8 walk-in closet (please use extreme caution when accessing this room). In total, the home offers two bedrooms with an excellent floor plan that maximizes space and 1.5 bathrooms. You will find a large living room that flows directly into a galley-style kitchen, creating a functional main living area. The full, usable basement features a concrete block foundation, gas water heater (operation unknown), updated gas furnace (operation unknown), and access to plumbing, electrical, and washer/dryer hookups. Outside, the property boasts so much additional space. Off the alley sits a detached structure complete with a 20X22 room perfect for a future man cave, workshop, or entertainment area. The home also features a single-car garage that stretches an impressive 38 feet deep and includes a sizable tool/storage niche along the side. Property being sold as is!
