Welcome to 826 Essex Road, which sits on one of the largest lots within Forest Park and is a perfect location across from Triangle Park. This home features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, large rooms including a living room, enclosed porch, dining room, breakfast room/butler's pantry, kitchen and laundry room/back porch. The home is being sold AS IS and under documents you can read about prior water damage which resulted in part of the home being deconstructed to remediate that water damage. So, 826 Essex is ready for your vision and renovations. The lot is huge with a driveway from the front to the alley in the rear where the carriage house has a lower level garage and room/bathroom above. The history of this home is wonderful and it can be an incredible home for someone.... this chance does not come along often. Showings will begin on Monday, June 17. There are showing restrictions so please consult with your agent or the listing agent on those restrictions. Thank you for your interest.
