Property Description

Opportunity knocks at 148 University Avenue—a property with strong potential in one of the city’s most sought-after rental locations. Being sold as is, where is, this four-bedroom home presents an excellent chance for investors, renovators, or buyers looking to add value in a prime area. Ideally situated within walking distance to Memorial University of Newfoundland, Health Sciences Centre, and Avalon Mall, the location alone speaks volumes for future rental demand and long-term upside. Set on a generous lot measuring approximately 125 feet deep, there is ample space here for expansion—offering exciting potential to extend the existing home or further enhance its value. The main level features hardwood floors, offering a solid starting point for cosmetic updates. With four bedrooms, the layout lends itself well to student or shared accommodation. Buyers should note that egress compliance for some bedroom windows is unknown and should be verified by purchaser. The property will require work, including roof shingles that will need replacement. A propane stove is present but its condition is unknown, and it is being included with no representations. This is not a polished home—it’s a project with promise. For the right buyer, it’s a chance to secure a property in a high-demand area and shape it into a strong income-producing investment. No conveyance of offers until 3pm on April 11th and left open until 7pm April 11th, 2026. (id:47053)
