Two-bedroom home goes on the market for just $1
A two-bedroom, one-bathroom home has gone on the market and it could be your own personal paradise for just $1.
The house, located in Pontiac, Michigan, was built in 1941 and offers plenty of opportunity for the buyer to upgrade and adapt it to their own personal style. In total, the whole property covers a sizeable 5,227 square feet.
The home also comes with a basement that can be renovated for your own tastes and to suit your needs. The roof for the home has also recently been installed so it's all new and fresh.
"The kitchen flooring is so drop-dead gorgeous, you might just want to host a dance-off instead of cooking," said listing agent Chris Hubel. "The roof is brand spanking new.
The kitchen floors have been likened to a dance floor (mediadrumimages/Chris Hubel)"So, if you're up for a challenge, and dream of turning a fixer-upper into a jaw-dropping masterpiece, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for. And all for just $1."

The outside of the property looks like it could do with some love, with the siding in need of replacing and a fresh coat of paint. The property features hardwood flooring throughout and has a decent sized garden perfect for enjoying warm weather, and ideal for pets and children.
It looks like whoever wrote the Zillow listing for the property had a bit of fun writing their description as well. They wrote: "Oh boy, hold onto your tool belts because we've got a doozy for you!
"Presenting a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom fixer upper in the heart of Pontiac, Michigan. You heard it right, just one George Washington can make this slice of potential paradise yours!
The property definitely needs some TLC but for just $1, it's a steal (mediadrumimages/Chris Hubel)"Rumour has it, that "home for a dollar" guy must have pulled a rabbit out of his hardhat again. Step inside and be prepared to marvel at the interior that might make you wonder: is that drywall dust or the latest Pontiac designer drug? Only time will tell!
"But don't let a little mystery discourage you; this house comes with all the charm of a home in need of a little, okay maybe a lot, of TLC. Those hardwoods are just waiting for a spa day, or at least a good mopping, to reveal their inner beauty."
The listing then continues on to talk about the basement, saying: "Behold the stunning basement - perfect for storing your collection of antique rubber duckies or, you know, whatever it is normal people store in basements. And guess what? The roof is brand spanking new.
The basement is a blank canvas ready to be transformed into whatever you want it to be (mediadrumimages/Chris Hubel)"Now, let's talk security. Who needs a guard dog when you've got your very own hornet's nest? Yes, you read that right. We've strategically placed a hornet's nest on the side of the house to ensure that no pesky intruders will be making off with your half-finished DIY projects.
"Just imagine the awe on their faces as they flee from a swarm of bees. It's like having your own personal security team, minus the uniforms.
"So if you're up for a challenge, and dream of turning a fixer-upper into a jaw-dropping masterpiece, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
The property comes with hardwood floors, that could be stunning with a little love (mediadrumimages/Chris Hubel)"Disclaimer: Please do not attempt to snort any substances found on the floors - we assure you, it's either dust of DIY fairy magic. Bees may or may not be unionised, proceed with caution."
