Description

Rare Opportunity - Renovate to your own taste! Act Quickly-This opportunity won't last! Located in a highly desirable neighborhood close to top-rated schools, NYC transportation, parks, shopping, and other everyday conveniences, this unique bilevel-style home offers buyers and opportunity that doesn't come along often. The home is being offered AS-IS for a limited two-week period at an attractive price giving the next owner the chance to purchase at a lower price and renovate the home to their own taste, style, and specifications. The seller is prepared to make the necessary renovations after this two-week period. Once those improvements are completed, the home will be offered at a significantly high price. For buyers who have been waiting for the right home in the right location but want the ability to create their own finishes, layout, and design, this is the time to act. You get the location. You get the space. You get the opportunity to make it your own. After two weeks the seller plans to renovate and price will increase accordingly.
