Value opportunities with meaningful upside are getting harder to find, and this one checks several of the right boxes. Situated on a 10,018-square-foot fenced lot, this vacant 2-bedroom home already has key mechanical improvements in place, including a 2014 furnace and central air system and a 2019 water heater, allowing investors to focus their renovation budget where it matters most. The property will require repairs, including addressing a roof leak over the bathroom, but the combination of a usable lot, updated mechanicals, and immediate availability creates an attractive fix-and-flip, rental, or long-term investment opportunity. Properties with this level of potential don't tend to stay available once priced competitively.

Besides the single family residents there is also an older mobile home on the property. 2 water taps plus an older barn that could be fixed up or tore down.
