3935 Thornhill Drive, originally uploaded by jrumanes.

I showed this property to an Investor client of mine this afternoon. I am pretty firmiliar with this area of Lilburn/Lawrenceville so I knew going in that this could be a good house for him. It’s located in the Brookwood School District which is great! The lot is almost 1/2 acre and it’s flat and totally usable. The house is in reasonably good shape considering that it’s a foreclosure. What was most amazing regarding the condition of the home was that the carpet only looked like it needed a good cleaning! There are 4 bedrooms and 2 and 1/2 baths…no basement. There is a great screened-in sunroom off the really big family room and an open-air deck space, as well. The kitchen needs to be gutted, there is obsurd wallpaper everywhere and they converted the 2-car side-entry garage into a bonus room/den with a bar??? The price is good, but could be better. There is only one other home in the neighborhood for sale. It is also a 2-story, but has a basement and is 3-sides brick. The kitchen in that one has been redone and it’s listed for around $225,000. I think that if the garage was converted back, the roof issue was resolved, the kitchen updated and the wallpaper removed, I would feel comfortable listing it at $194,900.
