About this home
Active Coming Soon on 2/20/26. Rare oversized 75x100 lot in the desirable Mechanicsville section of South Amboy! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath Colonial offers incredible potential for the right buyer. With one full bath located in the partial basement and plumbing already in place upstairs for a possible additional bathroom, the layout provides flexibility and opportunity to expand. The first floor features a large eat-in kitchen, a good-sized living room, and a welcoming open front porch. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms plus a bonus room perfect for a home office, nursery, or future bath. Forced hot air heat(+/-4 years) and solid bones make this a great canvas for renovation. Outside, enjoy a rare oversized property with a brick driveway, expansive yard space, a 2-car detached garage, and plenty of off-street parking a true standout for the area. Home needs TLC and is being sold strictly as-is. Buyer responsible for township CO and smoke certificate. Priced accordingly, this is a fantastic opportunity for a handy end-user or investor to build sweat equity and make it their own. So many possibilities here! South Amboy has train to NYC and the shore, ferry to Manhattan, YMCA, Roller skating rink, public parks, waterfront park and so much more more!
