TAKE ANOTHER LOOK this wonderful home has Just been updated With a HUGE price reduction. Upstairs has complete new paint, carpet and luxury vinyl flooring and new tile in primary bath! Positioned on a prominent corner lot in one of Reno's most connected locations, this rare opportunity offers the space, layout, and potential that today's buyers dream about. With six bedrooms and a footprint surrounded by neighboring luxury properties reaching well over our price, this home is the perfect chance to create substantial upside and long-term value. Did we mention the views from almost every window? Located just moments from University of Nevada, Reno and steps from McCarran Boulevard, the property places you minutes from Downtown Reno, Midtown, shopping, dining, medical facilities, and easy freeway access to all parts of Northern Nevada. The home itself is ready for transformation. 3 Beds on main level, including primary suite, additional 3 bedrooms 1 bath and flex/bonus space downstairs. Flooring, kitchen, and bathrooms offer a blank canvas for remodeling and customization, making this an incredible option for investors, multigenerational living, student housing possibilities, or buyers wanting to build equity in a premier location. Outside, the oversized driveway, expansive corner setting, and large detached garage create flexibility rarely found in this price range , ideal for hobbies, storage, additional vehicles, workshops, or future creative use. This house was used to provide a nurturing environment for many, many students from all over the world as they attended UNR to become professors, doctors, engineers, and overall leaders in their communities. Priced intentionally below surrounding comparable properties, 2985 Socrates Drive is more than a home, it's an opportunity to reimagine, renovate, and unlock the full potential of an exceptional Reno location.
