About this House

The "Pure Potential" Investor Pitch Massive Hilltop Rehab - 2,000+ SQFT Above Grade with Great Bones Looking for a project with actual meat on the bones? Perched up on the hill off Ridge Road, this 1.5-story home offers a massive footprint that you just don't see in standard rehabs. With over 2,000 sq. ft. of above-grade living space and an additional 1,000+ sq. ft. in the basement with tough in pluming for an additional bath room basement has two exits to the yard and one in to the house, the scale here is huge. The Layout: The upper level features a massive master bedroom with walk-in closet , offering a layout that can easily be converted into a high-value suite including potential for 2 master suites upstairs. Solid Structure: This house is built like a tank. It needs a full remodel--including a new roof and full interior --but the bones are very solid and the foundation is set high on a desirable hilltop lot.
