About this House

Investor Special! Prime Opportunity in Williamsburg!

Calling all investors, flippers, and visionaries — this is your chance to bring a property back to life in a highly desirable location. Situated on a level ½-acre lot in James City County just outside Williamsburg, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers loads of potential and possibility.

Built in 1955, this property is in poor condition and requires a renovation from top to bottom—making it ideal for those seeking a true project with strong upside. Whether you’re looking to gut and rebuild, expand on the generous lot, or start fresh with new construction, the value here is in the location and upside potential.

Opportunities like this in Williamsburg are rare—especially at this price point. With easy access to major routes, shopping, dining, and the area’s many historic attractions, this is an unbeatable spot for a future income-producing property, flip, or long-term hold.

Cash or rehab financing only. Sold strictly as-is, where-is.

Bring your vision, your contractor, and your imagination—this one won’t last long!
