Standing strong on a nice big property in Buxton, this 1920 duplex offers lot of potential! The over half-acre lot is dry and elevated and slopes to a pretty creek in the back. There is no heat source, it has window air conditioning units, and there are plenty of projects ahead - but what a great chance to have a home in Buxton with an income producing second unit. You could covert this to a single family house as well (currently no interior stairs). Banks will not lend on properties without heat or that have extensive repair or safety concerns, so this one is for the cash buyers out there who may want a home or investment property at the beach, or to provide affordable housing options to locals and employees. You can enter the first unit from the full front porch or back stoop to find a living room, dining room, kitchen, and two bedrooms and a bath. There is a storage room with a separate entrance on this level that has a washer and dryer for common use (unknown condition on the washer and dryer). The top floor unit is accessed by the rear deck. Be careful on the steps. The stair treads were replaced but rails and supports need repair. This unit has a large living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a hall bath. There is a pull down stair access to a large attic space. The detached garage makes a nice workshop or it could be a fun Tiki Bar hangout.
