Property description
This is a solid, 2-unit building in an excellent area! This building needs work but it will make for a beautiful property one day! Live in one unit or rent out both units for income! Both units feature a large LR/DR area just a few steps away from a nicely updated kitchen. The bathrooms are spacious too! All bedrooms are spacious with ample closet space. Close to schools, shopping and transportation. A must see. Show and sell. NOTE: The property is in Flood Zone X, which is the least expensive flood insurance premium. Cash deals only. This property is zoned C-1, which means that if 50% or more of the structure burns down (fire) then it cannot be rebuilt as a single-family dwelling (home, condo, townhouse, 2-4 unit).
