Property Description:

This 3-bed, 2-bath block home offers 1,555 sq ft of living space on a generous 10,454 sq ft corner lot in a quiet Palm Bay neighborhood.

With strong comps nearby and all the heavy lifting done, it’s a straightforward flip with clear upside.

Focus your efforts on modernizing the interior — fresh flooring, updated kitchen and baths, paint, and fixtures — to bring this home to market-ready condition. This isn’t a full gut job, just a clean value-add opportunity for a fast turnaround.
