About This Property

Discover the charm and potential of this cute, affordable two-bedroom, one-bath ranch at 528 Fern Avenue in Blackman Township! Hardwood floors add warmth and character, creating an inviting starting point for buyers ready to bring their own style and vision to life. The single-story layout makes this home an appealing option whether you're purchasing your first home, looking to downsize, or searching for an opportunity to build equity through improvements.  Some updates have already been completed, giving the next owner a head start while leaving room for additional improvements and personal touches. The price reflects the available sweat-equity opportunity, making this a great fit for a buyer willing to put in some work and create a space that truly feels like home. Appreciate the character that's already here while imagining the possibilities ahead.   Situated on a dead-end street outside the City of Jackson, this home offers a tucked-away setting with the benefit of more affordable township taxes and utilities. Quick and easy access to major commuter routes makes daily travel convenient, combining a neighborhood setting with accessibility for work, errands, and activities throughout the Jackson area.  The seller will consider offers involving mortgage financing, with the purchaser responsible for completing any required repairs or updates to satisfy themselves or their loan.   Bring your ideas and make this home your own! This home is not available for rent.

***Highest and Best Due today by 8PM****A wonderful opportunity for someone looking for a cozy home with character! The original wood flooring adds charm, and the recently updated bathroom is a great modern touch. Plus, having a 2-car garage and a nice-sized yard is a bonus. The convenience of being close to shopping, restaurants, and highways is definitely a plus. It is the perfect canvas for someone to make it their own.
