Developmental potential? Flip opportunity w/ option to subdivide? Nestled adjacent to Burroughs Creek and Trail, & just down the street from both Parnell Park & Burroughs Creek Park & splash pad, sits this all one level 1600+ sq ft 3 BR/ 2 BA rancher on almost half an acre. The home is in need of real TLC and presents a project not for the faint of heart, but the potential of this property is extensive. Talk with the listing agent about some of the ideas discussed with the City about subdividing the parcel & maximizing its investment potential. Note that much of the rear of the property is in the flood plain, though it does not appear the home itself is, nor are the owners required to carry any flood insurance. Bring your vision and roll up your sleeves to make this place shine! Home sold in present As Is condition, seller will make no repairs.
