This gem is back on the market! Estate issues are being seen to and we should be ready to close in 45-60 days. And, oh, the promise of this place! 2.44 acres total, easily divided (look at the GIS map). Privacy. Newer metal roof. This house has been in the same family since it was built. The interior needs love (a new bathroom, for starters), & you'll want to update the kitchen & electrical, refinish the floors, and see to a foundation issue, but oh, my, what character. Hardwood floors, TIG wood walls, real wood trim, fab rock fireplace w/insert that will heat the whole house. A light-filled office off the living room. Eat-in kitchen. Walk-In pantry. A huge pear tree. Blueberries. HUGE oaks, a gazillion azaleas. Many stunning spring blooms. Outbuildings that also need some love (or removal) but offer promise of a garage or tractor shed, workshop. Driveway needs work. As-Is - seller will make no repairs. Price Firm. NO DRIVE-BYS. PLEASE MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE.
