Description

Bring Your Vision to 117-22 142nd Place AS-IS / CASH BUYERS ONLY Opportunity awaits in Jamaica, Queens. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers approximately 990 square feet of interior space on a nearly 20' x 98' lot and is ready for its next chapter. Currently configured as a single-family residence, public records classify the property as a two-family, offering an interesting opportunity for an investor, contractor or cash buyer looking to renovate and reimagine the space. Buyers should independently verify legal use and any proposed alteration or reconfiguration with the appropriate agencies and professionals. The main level offers living and dining areas, a kitchen ready for modernization and a half bath. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath. The current bedroom configuration includes a railroad-style layout, creating an opportunity to rethink the floor plan and improve functionality as part of a larger renovation. The existing bathrooms have seen some updating, while much of the remainder of the home is ready for modernization. The basement provides additional space but requires substantial remediation and renovation. The property is being offered strictly as-is and to cash buyers only due to its current condition. Conveniently located near JFK Airport, public transportation, major roadways, parks, shopping and neighborhood amenities. For the buyer with vision and an eye for opportunity, 117-22 142nd Place presents the chance to redesign, restore and create something special in a well-connected Queens location.
