GREAT LOCATION. MAJOR PROJECT. BRING MORE THAN A PINTEREST BOARD. Built in 1942, this little brick home has vintage character—and a to-do list that deserves your full attention. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a fenced backyard, and a detached garage, it’s ready for someone with a plan, a contractor, and realistic expectations. The location is the easy part. Whitaker Park is directly across the street, offering walking trails, playgrounds, and outdoor recreation without adding those acres to your mowing responsibilities. MidAmerica Industrial Park is nearby, giving investors another reason to consider this property for a future rental or resale after renovation. Now, before anyone starts shopping for curtains: this home needs substantial repairs and is not financeable in its current condition. Floor coverings have been removed in several rooms, visible structural cracks are present, the original windows are showing their age, and the garage door needs repairs. Seller reports a previous roof leak around a vent during heavy rain and strong winds and believes it may have been repaired, but that has not been confirmed. Optimism is welcome. Inspections are better. Some big-ticket updates have already happened. Per seller, the heating and air conditioning units were replaced around 2023–2024, and the sewer line from the house to the backyard alley was replaced around 2014–2015. Review the seller’s disclosures for full condition details. Looking for a renovation project with rental potential and a park-side location? Bring your contractor and run your numbers. This little brick house is ready for its next chapter. Fair warning: the first chapter involves work boots.
