414 E 5th St
Description
This is a genuine fixer-upper requiring significant work to bring it up to modern standards (full cosmetics, possible updates to plumbing/HVAC, finishing any incomplete areas, and general TLC). No central air conditioning (relies on window units), and some systems/finishes are dated. It's not move-in ready but has solid bones and character that many renovated historic homes in the area lack. Location & Market Context:
Located in Metropolis, IL (Massac County), a small, friendly community. The local real estate market shows average home values around $110,000–$130,000 (with medians varying by source), and fixer-uppers often sell at a discount for investors or DIY enthusiasts. With a motivated seller, this could be an excellent opportunity in a market where inventory includes affordable options and modest price growth. Imagine transforming this grand old home: restoring the hardwood floors to shine, updating the kitchen and baths, adding central air, and showcasing the original woodwork—turning it into a standout property worth far more than the investment! This property is currently off-market (not actively listed on major sites like Zillow), so it's a private opportunity. Contact for details, pricing, showings, or more photos/info. Perfect for flippers, investors, or homeowners looking for a rewarding project in a quiet town. Don't miss out—motivated seller means flexible terms possible!
