Property Description
Some buyers look for finished. Others look for possibility. 301 S Van Buren is ready for someone with vision. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has been vacant for some time and needs significant renovation, but its location creates an opportunity worth considering. Just one block from Marion's iconic South Market Street, with its cobblestone streets and stately historic homes, the property sits near the heart of a part of Marion filled with character. Tower Square, downtown shopping, dining and entertainment amenities are within walking distance, adding to the appeal for someone considering a personal residence or investment property. Inside you'll find three bedrooms, two baths and a basement, while outside the property offers a carport and enclosed back porch. The home and grounds need attention, giving the next owner the chance to reimagine the property from the ground up. Renovate it for yourself, add it to a long-term rental portfolio, or explore its potential for the short- or mid-term rental market. This isn't a move-in-ready opportunity. It's a roll-up-your-sleeves, bring-your-vision kind of opportunity, in a location that gives you a great place to start.
