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 rehabilitated in 2024. While some improvements have been completed, the home still has some renovation wishlist items, 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.
