Built in 1939, this handsome Tudor-style house offers immediate curb appeal, with its a solid brick exterior, patterned stonework, and steeply-pitched rooflines. Inside, one is drawn to the striking carved wood mantle framing the brick fireplace. Large living room windows let in plenty of light. Arched doorways, hardwood floors, and a sunroom at the back of the house add to the property’s appeal.
With Chandler Park and its Family Aquatic Center (the largest outdoor water park in the county); and 18-hole golf course just blocks away, recreation opportunities are plentiful. The I-94 expressway and shopping and dining options of Warren-Corner are also near by, adding to the property’s appeal.
While in solid condition, purchasers should plan on making a number of repairs to the property, including bathroom and kitchen overhauls, among other fixes. Please review the attached presale inspection report for a broader list of necessary repairs. Please also note that the purchaser will be responsible for the current year (2014); property taxes at the time of closing on the sale.
Please note that the rehab cost will often cost more than the winning bid price. Failure to bring a property up to code within 6 months will result in forfeiture of property (9 months for historic properties). Auction dates are subject to change. Check the site regularly to be aware of any schedule changes.
