Description

Great investment opportunity! This property is located in a surprisingly private location, 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. Set up with 2 bedrooms and the full bath on the 2nd floor, the first floor offers a spacious and bright room that would make a nice 1st floor, 3rd bedroom. The Great room off of the kitchen is long (19 feet!) , so it can easily manage dining and living areas. You decide the layout! The house...Great investment opportunity! This property is located in a surprisingly private location, 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. Set up with 2 bedrooms and the full bath on the 2nd floor, the first floor offers a spacious and bright room that would make a nice 1st floor, 3rd bedroom. The Great room off of the kitchen is long (19 feet!) , so it can easily manage dining and living areas. You decide the layout! The house was gutted and remodeled in 2012. This was when the updated kitchen cabinets and flooring were installed. The front porch is deep, you could easily sit and sip while enjoying the pastoral view of Fort Hill! Handy to stores, the Caribou Wellness/Recreation Center, Cary Medical Center, or schools. The tin ceilings and historic stair handrail create charm. An entry off the back of the kitchen would make an easy entry to the kitchen, from the garage. This affordable home will currently qualify for cash 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!
