Property description
Welcome to the Ninth Ward! A classic community brimming with architecture and character from a bygone era, yet still provides a modernly functional lifestyle within the confines of its housing stock. This twin home on corner lot is ready for a full rehab so that you can showcase your creativity and design prowess! Open and airy front porch is welcoming. Across the threshold you will be greeted with a what can be canvas. A completely open and flowing floor plan is possible that will be crafted around a brick mantel in the main living area, that will open up to a dining space that will be drenched with light thanks to a bevy of windows on the exterior wall. Kitchen will go on the rear and the possibility of a main floor half bath and laundry facilities, thanks to a one story existing addition off the rear of the original main structure. Second floor will be host to three bedrooms and at least one full bathroom, however, the rear addition could house an additional bath or just be utilized as a rear covered porch area for the back bedroom. Basement could be finished since there is both traditional interior access and side egress. Property is not for the faint of heart, and can only be purchased using cash or hard money arrangements. Home owners with significant resources can renovate to their taste and reap the rewards of instant equity, plus custom fit out living arrangements. Investors can renovate and rent for cash flow or once completed, go back to market for an end user profit play. One thing is for certain, opportunity abounds, so roll up your sleeves and get busy!
