Description

Opportunity awaits at 818 W Cedar St in Cherokee! Built in the late 1800s, this stately two-story home offers the substantial construction, character, and presence often associated with homes of this era. Situated on a corner lot, the tall two-story design and welcoming open front porch give the property a grand appearance and plenty of potential for the right buyer to bring it back to life. The home offers approximately 1, 034 sq ft on the main level plus an additional 964 sq ft on the second floor, providing nearly 2, 000 sq ft of above-grade living space. A full unfinished basement adds even more usable space. The unique layout currently includes two stairways from the main level to the second floor as well as two separate stairways accessing the basement, potentially offering some interesting possibilities as the interior is redesigned. Renovation of the property had already begun, including much of the exterior siding, but the interior remains largely ready for a full remodel. The home also experienced a small fire in the basement that damaged the electrical panel, along with some minor smoke damage elsewhere in the home. Buyers should anticipate electrical work and substantial interior renovation as part of the project. Outside, the property includes a 22' x 24' detached two-car garage providing approximately 528 sq ft of garage space. The garage will need additional improvements, including siding and a new roof. This is not a move-in-ready home—it is an opportunity for an investor, contractor, experienced renovator, or ambitious buyer looking for a property with size, character, and potential. With its corner-lot setting, nearly 2, 000 sq ft above grade, full basement, detached two-car garage, and classic two-story presence, there is plenty here to work with. Due to the property's current condition, buyers should anticipate purchasing with cash or financing appropriate for a property requiring significant renovation. Being sold in it's current condition.
