Some homes are finished. This one is a starting point, and a good one. This three-bedroom, one-bath split level in College Park sits on a corner lot, so you get extra yard, more light, and a little more breathing room than the typical interior lot. The community around it is well maintained, and that helps a home like this hold its value as you improve it. The big-ticket item is already done: a new roof. The rest is ready for your ideas. The kitchen, bath, finishes, and flooring are all due for updating, and the split-level layout gives you separate living areas to work with as you plan. Bring your contractor, your design eye, and a little vision, and make this house exactly what you want it to be.
