With its steeply-pitched rooflines, casement windows, and solid stone-brick exterior, this handsome Tudor-style house offers immediate curb appeal. The striking patterned stone and brickwork continues on the inside with the property’s massive fireplace, adding coziness and promising warmth on cold winter days. Built in 1936, the property offers a range of other historic features, including an in-built telephone nook. Purchasers will also enjoy the company of caring long-time neighbors who have worked to look over the property in its vacancy.
With Chandler Park and its Family Aquatic Center (the largest outdoor water park in the county); and 18-hole golf course just a number of blocks away, recreation opportunities are plentiful. The I-94 expressway and shopping and dining options of Warren-Corner are also near by. While in solid condition, purchasers should prepare to make a range of repairs and renovations to the property, including bathroom and kitchen overhauls, among other fixes. Please review the 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.
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.
