Property Description

Want to enhance a property from yesteryear? Need tax write-offs with investment property? Thought about an airbnb or such? This true jewel in the rough is waiting patiently for your renovation and refurbishing touches. If these walls could talk, they would whisper of sweet and noisy family gatherings and days when home was a special place. With 4 bedrooms (one is a study containing laundry hookups) and 2.5 baths, this wood- and vinyl-sided home offers plentiful interior space in addition to a vast porch that runs the length of the home lined in colorful mature azaleas. In the back, an oversized brick patio is perfect for outside activities and the patio roof even has a round opening which provided air space and breathing room for a former cherished tree. The old inside carpet has been removed to show off the sturdy wood floors which need refinishing. So much storage space - make sure to view nooks and crannies. Two central air conditioning/heating units and one hot water heater. Kitchen offers gas stove, trash compactor and dishwasher. This is an estate property not inhabited for several years. Property cannot be sold with conventional or FHA/VA financing. Line or credit, cash or other methods would work best. Under termite contract until mid 2026. Alarm installed. Lot is 0.64/acre. An adjoining lot NOT part of this listing but owned by these sellers touches Ransbottom Drive in the back of property. Termite contract will be extended into August 2026.
