7266 Polk St, Merrillville, IN, 46410
About This Home
Bring your vision to this 3 Bedroom 2 bath home - 7266 Polk! The dated finishes and shag carpeting have already been removed, leaving a blank canvas ready for its next chapter. The renovation was started but not completed, offering an excellent opportunity for an investor, renovator, or buyer who wants to select the finishes and make the home their own. The hard part--seeing beyond the old decor--has already begun. Now it's ready for someone to complete the transformation. Sold as-is.
