While other buyers sit on the sidelines, make a move on this fabulous single-story home near downtown Louisburg and get an amazing deal. Now listed at $315,000. 205 John Street offers a sweet combination of 1950s charm and a modern wing built in 2021 with LVP flooring, oversized rooms and a luxurious bathroom with step-in shower with tiled bench. In total, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 3 FULL bathrooms, a walk-in pantry, hardwood floors and a spacious mud room/laundry room that bridges the 1950s ranch with the modern addition. All of this on 3/4 of an acre that is beautifully landscaped with crepe myrtles, azaleas, fig trees and blueberry bushes. Visitors to the home have admired the mid-century details like the nautical-style windows in the doors and the oak panels in the study. They have also been impressed by the sprawling footprint of the home that provides lots of space for relaxation, work, privacy and play. Please note the contractor did not schedule a final inspection with Franklin County for the addition so that portion of the home is considered unpermited space.
