Christ Berthelsons Sub
About this home
Bring your vision and tool belt to this classic 2-bedroom, 1-bath home, offering a fantastic opportunity for investors, flippers, or ambitious DIY enthusiasts. Step inside to find original hardwood flooring stretching across a highly functional main-floor layout, which conveniently houses both bedrooms and a full bathroom. The property also features a full, unfinished basement—perfect for future expansion or ample storage—alongside a low-maintenance aluminum exterior, a single-stall detached garage, and a concrete backyard patio ready for outdoor gatherings. Please note, this home is a true diamond in the rough and is being sold as-is; it currently lacks heat and running water, meaning only cash or conventional financing will qualify. If you are looking for a rewarding project with great bones and the chance to build sweat equity from the ground up, this is the one.

How SODL buyer credits work
When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.
- Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
- Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
- Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing
A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
