Description

Northside home is ready to be restored to its once-former glory or taken down to envision your ideal project. This property suffered a fire, and the price is reflective of the restoration work required. Property is being sold AS-IS. Situated just one block from both Highway 210/Washington St and the 11-acre Historic Gregory Park. Seller was told the current zoning allows for single-family residential, multi-family, or light commercial use. This large lot allows for off-street parking and just 5 blocks from St. Joseph's Medical Center.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from April 16, 2026
