Come envision the potential in this East Mordecai home (w/ some retained original details & charm like solid core doors, vintage hardware, multi light windows, hardwood floors) on a large lot. Renovate as is to personalize it; bump out the side; bump out the back; start over and build your dream home. Or any combination of those! Amazing location convenient to Brookside Bodega & Optimist, Person St shops, Tap Yard & Pine State Coffee, everything happening at Whitaker Mill and Atlantic, Seaboard, numerous parks, downtown, and basically everything ITB, but nestled on a side street in a residential neighborhood. The existing quirky and artsy home needs updating and repair, but boasts a fantastic layout prime for renovation or expansion--and you'll still have a yard with many different spaces to claim!
