Charming Fixer-Upper with Potential in a Resilient Community You don't have to shovel sunshine here in Bay Indies! This spacious 24' x 44' home at 428 Zacapa was well on its way to a full renovation before being impacted by a hurricane. Now offered as-is for $11,500, this home presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer looking to add the finishing touches. Several major updates were already completed in 2024 before the storm, including a new vapor barrier, new 3/4" subfloors with seamless, luxury, water-resistant vinyl plank flooring throughout, new A/C, a stainless-steel refrigerator and convection oven, and a new GE breaker box for insurance compliance. The home will require a new roof, carport awning restoration (not required by park), and Florida room repairs. While the roof does not leak, this home is perfect for someone looking to live in it while completing the remaining renovations. The carport includes a portion that was previously a screened-in outdoor room with indoor/outdoor carpeting, and leads to a shed where the W/D, and hot water heater are located. Inside, the spacious living room features a big-screen TV, an electric fireplace, and a drop-leaf table. The Florida room, which was enclosed before the storm, still has its frame and comes with a set of beautiful blue sofas that can be moved into the living area. The galley shaped kitchen has a breakfast counter, plenty of countertop space, and a tiled backsplash that extends up to the cabinets and a pantry. This space opens to an eat-in kitchen with a table and chairs, which is large enough to also be converted into a den or home office. The formal dining area includes a second table and chairs along with a built-in server with glass cabinets. The guest bedroom, previously used as a sewing room, has two double closets and would fit a queen bed. The guest bath has been updated with a new vanity and beadboard chair rail, and has a ceramic tile tub/shower combo. The master suite includes a queen bed but can easily accommodate a king, with two double closets offering plenty of storage and room for furnishings. The ensuite bathroom was in the process of being renovated before the storm, featuring new floors, a walk-in closet and beadboard walls. The private wet room includes a walk-in shower and flush. This home is not just a project; it's an opportunity to create a personalized haven in a resilient and rebounding community.
