Discover this exceptional four-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Victorian in desirable Olney—more than just a TLC home, it's your gateway to financial freedom or luxury living. The grand double-door entrance welcomes you into a sun-filled foyer with a charming parlor featuring stunning bow windows and original stained glass that previously housed a successful business, while spacious living areas flow seamlessly to a private back patio overlooking an expansive backyard with endless possibilities. The home includes four well-appointed bedrooms, a formal dining room, a generous kitchen, full and half baths, a private balcony, two separate basements (one for utilities and another finished and ready for use or storage), and a large detached one-car garage accessible from the rear street. The owner has completed strategic upgrades, giving you a head start though the heater needs attention and remaining improvements are yours to customize. This distinctive property sits on an oversized lot perfect for subdivision into two separate properties, allowing you to sell one and keep one for additional equity and opportunity. Located in a prime area with convenient access to highways, schools, and shopping, this diamond in the rough is sold as-is, where-is—ready for the right person to transform into substantial profit or their dream custom home. Cash, investor or 203k financing only. ALL OFFERS WELCOME.
