About 2157 N Fairhill St

Welcome to this newly renovated 2-story house in the thriving neighborhood of Olde Kensington! Perfect for first-time buyers looking to establish roots in our lovely city. This home underwent a complete renovation in 2022, including new mechanicals and a roof replacement. It comes fully equipped with modern kitchen appliances - electric stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave - as well as a washer and dryer for added convenience. One of the standout features of this property is the remaining 9 years of a 10-year tax abatement on improvements, which translates to a very low property tax bill for the new owner. With Olde Kensington's ongoing revitalization, this is a great investment opportunity in a rapidly changing neighborhood. Given the high demand in the area, this charming home won't be on the market for long, so don't hesitate to bring your offers to the table. It's an excellent chance to own a fully renovated, move-in-ready property in an up-and-coming part of the city. More updated photos are coming.
