About this home

Outstanding renovation opportunity on Alexander Ave in Linden! This 1948 home has been gutted and is ready for a complete transformation, offering a blank canvas for contractors, investors, or buyers looking to create a custom home in a desirable residential area. The existing footprint can accommodate a thoughtful 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath layout, plus a full-size basement offering excellent potential for added storage, recreation, utility space, or future finished living area. Linden continues to be a strong Union County market, with recent area data showing home values in the mid-$500, 000 range and continued buyer demand. Buyers are drawn to Linden for its convenient commuter location, access to NJ Transit's Linden Station, proximity to major highways, shopping, parks, recreation, and nearby centers including Newark, Elizabeth, Rahway, and the greater NYC metro area. Bring your vision and make this property shine. A rare chance to renovate from the ground up in a well-established neighborhood with strong resale potential.
