About this home

Incredible Lakefront View Opportunity in Lake Alfred! Explore the potential of this unique fixer-upper, situated on a high and dry 0.55-acre lot with main road frontage, alley access, and a triple-wide driveway, a combination that provides excellent visibility and accessibility. The property offers beautiful lake views of Lake Alfred and is located just steps from Lake Swoope and Twin Lakes Park, which features a public boat ramp, walking and running trails, picnic shelters, and fishing and boating access. The yard is fully fenced, providing privacy and space for outdoor enjoyment. This AS-IS property is ideal for buyers looking to renovate or invest in a prime location near recreational amenities. Currently zoned Vintage Residential Neighborhood (VRN), the zoning allows up to 4 dwelling units per acre, subject to city regulations.
