Bring your vision and tools to this prime South Tabor fixer! Built in 1908, this 1,932 sq ft single-family home offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, plus a tuck-under garage on a 5,000 sq ft lot (R5 zoning). With utilities already connected (water, sewer, electricity), the groundwork is in place for your next project.
This property is ideal for investors, developers, or flippers seeking a cash-only opportunity. The interior is in need of a complete overhaul. There is currently no working furnace and the electrical panel is minimal and all electrical will need a full update. The sewer line is likely the original line. Fortunately, the home has been fully cleaned out and the property has undergone extensive clearing, giving you a good head start.
Located in the heart of Portland’s South Tabor neighborhood, you’ll be close to schools, parks, shops, and restaurants, with easy access to public transit and major commuter routes. Walk score 83, Bike score 92!
NOTE: The lot has been searched and no buried oil tanks were found. The tank search report, the asbestos report for the home, and an exiting conditions map are available in the MLS documents. Sale includes a completed survey of the lot.
