Alright, thrill-seekers and fearless renovators-here's a unique opportunity on prime Linden Avenue in East Highland Park. This charming 1920s two-bedroom, one-bath cottage has certainly been through its share of challenges. After years of difficult tenants and other issues, the property was cleared out and underwent a rehabilitation in 2024. While some improvements have been completed, the home still has some renovation wishlist, including a new roof, kitchen and bath glow-up, flooring repairs, paint throughout, new decks front and back, French drains, plus full attic and roofing restoration. Priced to reflect the truth, sold strictly as-is. Perfect for the FHA Limited 203(k) program - roll up to $75,000 of those fixes right into your mortgage. Ten-minute walk to town, fifteen to the lake, great schools, quarter-acre lot. Highland Park living, just with... character. Showings by appointment only. All showings require buyer verification and pre-qualification before access is granted. Door code provided only to verified, serious buyers only."
