On-Site Real Estate Auction: Endicott, NY

Bob & Sallie Connelly will conduct an On-Site Auction of the Real Estate at 518 Taft Ave, Endicott, NY 13760 on Thursday, October 18, 2007 at 7:00 pm with an Open House on Sunday, October 7 from 1:00-4:00 pm and by appointment. . Located on a 1+ acre lot with mature landscaping and 175 ft frontage, the two-story 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom house has gas heat and hot water, central air-conditioning and vacuum, 2 fireplaces, a Florida room, and an attached 2-car garage. The full basement includes a recreation room, laundry room, workshop, and 2 large utility rooms.

The first floor and basement were damaged last winter when a water pipe froze, and are now mostly open to the studs following remediation by SERVPRO, who removed the affected carpeting, flooring and wall board. The 81 year old owner has decided to move rather than remodel, and is selling AS IS with the upset price well below market value at $95,000 plus a 10% Buyer's Premium. The original floor plans are available, but with walls presently open, this is a perfect opportunity to create the layout of your dreams.

Robert "Bob" Connelly of Connelly Realty is the broker and auctioneer for this sale. Additional details, photos, and directions are available in the auction brochure [PDF: 133 KB]. A slideshow of the property has views of the house, fireplaces, and the taxmap.
