About This Home

Let's stop pretending the house is the star here. The real headliner is the garage. Oversized, generous, ample: no matter what you call it, we all know that in some things, SIZE MATTERS. And this garage understands the assignment. The detached 24x28 oversized 2-car garage is easily one of the most valuable features on the property. There’s room for vehicles, tools, hobbies, lawn equipment, storage, projects, weekend tinkering, questionable Facebook Marketplace purchases, and probably still enough leftover space to actually park. Plus it sits on a huge corner lot that just happens to have a "project house" on it as well. About that house… she’s not winning any beauty contests right now. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath, 740 sq ft home is mid-renovation, and the seller chose not to waste time or money throwing a little paint around just to make things look better for photos. No lipstick on a pig here. What you see is what you get. But here’s the good news: a lot of the big stuff is already done. Electrical has been updated with up-to-date wiring and a new breaker panel. New plumbing has been run throughout most of the house, with just a couple final connections left to complete (the washer/dryer closet and kitchen hot water line). The space-conscious bathroom is about 90% finished with its glow-up, replacement vinyl windows are already installed, the water heater is only 3 years old, and the roof on the house was replaced just 2 years ago. Inside, the living room and one bedroom floors have already been stripped and sealed, giving you the option to continue the restoration or install something fresh. The old furnace has been removed, and the seller is providing a window a/c unit and 2 heaters to keep you comfy while you decide what kind of HVAC system to install in your new tiny kingdom. This property is perfect for an investor looking for a manageable renovation, a buyer ready to finish what’s been started, or someone who believes garage space counts as living space. Or for someone who is tired of paying for storage units, perhaps? Bring your vision—and maybe a little elbow grease.
