Just got this bad boy under contract. Wanted to get the before pictures posted now before the fun starts!
Details:
4 bed, 1 bath house about two blocks from a University. Just under 1900 sq ft. We will be adding 1 or 2 bathrooms, improving the layout of the bedrooms, and completely redoing the interior. The front porch will be opened up and the exterior will have all rot repaired and completely repainted.
Stay tuned!! Looking at completion in time for the fall semester!
