About this House

What's unique:Attached two-car garageTall ceilingsFive bedrooms
Most fixer opportunities ask you to reimagine the entire house. This one mainly asks you to put the kitchen back together and tackle some cosmetics. The rest is already compelling: 2,344 square feet, five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, tall ceilings, and updated flooring through much of the home. The floor plan places one bedroom and a full bath on the main level, then adds four more bedrooms upstairs, giving everyone room without wasting space. Set behind the gates of the Rock Creek community, the home also includes an attached two-car garage and a fenced backyard with a patio. It needs finishing, but the size, layout, and neighborhood are already in place. For the right buyer, that is where the opportunity lies.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 97% nearby.

    "I've raised my 15yr old daughter in this home. I no longer live here but visit my mother often. When I lived here it was a Great neighborhood. It's actually not that bad, there are just a few unneighborly people 😬 living in the area. They come & go, but most people living here have been here @ least 10yrs. Which is Great 😀, like a family on our block. Kids went to school together, and still have a close relationship with the neighbors till this day!!! 😁💖🏘️"
