Good news for those of you who looked at 1216 White Street but lost out on the bidding war. This Bank Owned property is back on the market.
I've shown this house several times. I think this property could make a great project for someone who doesn't mind spending some time and money turning this place into a little gem. Here's why: I am assuming the prior owner did the upgrades or improvements that exist on the house. Work was started. But then it stopped. The improvements are not complete. The kitchen needs to be replaced and the floors need to be repaired. Some piers probably need to be replaced. A competent home inspector or contractor can tell you what needs to be done and how much it will cost to complete the renovation.
1216 White Street has a huge yard on the side and rear. I'm talking about the potential to create a really beautiful pool with a spacious garden area. There appears to have been off-street parking where the current boarded-up garage sits. There is a new sidewalk with no curb cut. There may be photographs or city records that would provide evidence to enable a new owner to get that curb cut put back in place. All of a sudden, that ugly little garage comes down and the property has off street parking and gated access to the new pool and garden area.
1216 White Street is now offered at $329,900 or $251 per sq ft. The house is 1357 sq ft according to County Records. But the lot is enormous--5807 sq ft. The location is good in my personal opinion. The street is busy in the daytime. But it is pretty quiet after 6:00 PM. The property is convenient to the beaches a few blocks south and Old Town a couple of blocks to the north.
As I mentioned, this property is bank owned. The Seller requires all offers must be pre-qualified.
