Excellent opportunity for investors seeking a light cosmetic rehab in a well-established Indianapolis neighborhood. This vacant 3-bedroom, 1-bath single-family home is fully livable and offers many of the expensive updates already completed, allowing investors to focus primarily on cosmetic improvements before placing a tenant or preparing the property for resale. The home features a functional open-concept layout where the kitchen flows directly into the main living area, creating a spacious feel that appeals to today's buyers and renters. The kitchen has already been updated and remains in good condition, while the remodeled bathroom offers a clean, rental-ready layout with an updated vanity, newer countertop, and tub/shower surround. Only minor finishing items remain, including securing the vanity sink and completing a few cosmetic touch-ups. Throughout the home, many important improvements have already been completed. Vinyl replacement windows are installed throughout, electrical switches and outlets have been updated, the plumbing utilizes copper piping with updates completed approximately 2–3 years ago, and the central air system is only a few years old. The furnace is reported to be in good working condition, and the water heater is newer as well. A water softener is also installed. The remaining work is largely cosmetic. Minor drywall repairs and wall skim coating are recommended in several areas, closet doors are missing in one bedroom, and the original flooring offers an opportunity for modernization depending on the investment strategy. Outside, the property continues to show strong value with a newer roof on the home, vinyl siding, vinyl soffits, updated exterior electrical service, and a covered breezeway leading to a detached storage building. The storage structure has a newer roof but will benefit from a replacement door and one broken window. Minor siding, soffit, gutter, and caulking repairs remain, making this an attractive project without major structural concerns
