About this home

Exceptional Investor Opportunity with Outstanding ARV Potential! This stately brick home offers the rare chance to restore a property with remarkable historic character at an incredible entry price. Significantly larger than many renovated homes currently selling in the area, this property provides the square footage, architectural details, and upside investors seek when pursuing a high-value renovation. Much of the interior demolition has already been completed, allowing buyers to clearly envision the possibilities and begin planning the next phase of restoration. From the moment you step inside, you'll discover timeless craftsmanship waiting to be brought back to life. Impressive original millwork, a grand staircase, soaring ceilings, oversized rooms, and period architectural details provide the foundation for an exceptional restoration. The exposed basement offers buyers an excellent opportunity to evaluate the home's construction while planning their renovation. One of the home's most distinctive features is its original oversized window openings. At some point, smaller replacement windows were installed within the original masonry openings, but the expansive openings remain intact, presenting the opportunity to restore the home's original scale, dramatically increase natural light, and recreate the stunning appearance these rooms were originally designed to showcase. The current front entrance also offers tremendous potential, with the opportunity to replace it with a grand period-inspired entry that complements the home's historic architecture and dramatically enhances curb appeal. Located in an area experiencing substantial reinvestment and redevelopment following the 2025 tornado, this property is positioned in a neighborhood attracting renewed investor interest. While many nearby properties sustained significant storm damage, this home does not appear to have experienced the same level of damage, allowing the next owner to focus on restoring its historic character rather than rebuilding from catastrophic loss. Whether your vision is a profitable resale, an income-producing rental, being part of a major revitalization of North City, or the restoration of a beautiful historic residence for yourself on an FHA 203(k) renovation loan, the opportunity here is exceptional. The combination of generous square footage, preserved architectural character, and strong after-repair value potential makes this a project worthy of investment. Restore the craftsmanship, reopen the grand window openings, create an impressive front facade, and transform this property into one of the neighborhood's standout homes. Properties offering this combination of size, character, and upside are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Sold AS IS. Seller to make no repairs or provide inspections. Bring your contractor, your vision, and your imagination to unlock the full potential of this remarkable investment opportunity.
