Description

FINAL and BEST offers due Thursday 08/06 5PM. Incredible opportunity for investors, contractors or buyers looking to build instant equity! This 4 bedroom, 1.5 bath Cape Cod is priced well below its recent appraised value of $475,000 in its current condition, offering exceptional upside for the next owner. With thoughtful renovations, this home has the potential to be worth significantly more. The home features hardwood floors, an eat-in kitchen, woodburning fireplace, partially finished basement and a screened porch, providing the perfect opportunity to renovate and make it your own. The spacious second floor also offers the potential to add a full bathroom, creating an even more functional layout. Additional highlights include a detached one car garage, private backyard, public water, public sewer and natural gas. The property is not located in a flood zone and, to the best of the Estate's knowledge, the basement has never experienced water intrusion. Ideally located near the desirable Piedmont section of Bound Brook, this commuter friendly home is just minutes from Routes 22, 287 & 78, the NYC train station, Costco, Target, ShopRite, restaurants, parks and everyday conveniences. The property is being sold strictly AS IS. The seller is an estate and has never occupied the home. No repairs, repair credits or concessions will be provided. This is a rare opportunity to purchase below appraised value and transform this home into something truly special.
