Unlock the hidden potential of this 1958 ranch-style home, perfectly positioned on a spacious 0.26-acre lot in the heart of Vancouver. Being sold strictly as-is, this property represents a rare "diamond in the rough" opportunity for investors, hobbyists, or anyone looking to build immediate sweat equity. While the home requires vision and updates, it boasts a solid foundation for your next project, including a durable 7-year-old metal roof, vinyl windows, and a forced-air system with air conditioning to keep the bones comfortable while you renovate.The true showstopper of this property is the massive, detached 24' x 30' three-car shop. Far more than just a garage, this space features upstairs storage, and a 12' x 24' back studio that could easily be reimagined as additional bedrooms or a private ADU. With 30' twin-gate access and a dedicated RV park-drive, it is a mechanic’s dream or the ultimate setup for a home-based business.Step outside to discover a private retreat that feels miles away from the city. The backyard overlooks a serene greenbelt forest, offering a lush, wooded backdrop for the included 16' hexagonal gazebo and gas/wood firepit. The swim spa has not been used in 2 years but was operational at that time. The R-18 zoning adds a strategic layer of value, providing long-term density options that are hard to find at this price point. Whether you are looking to flip, rent, or create a custom compound with a world-class workshop, this property is ready for its next chapter. Open House Sunday April 19th from 1-3pm
