Affordable, 3 bed/1.5 bath low-maintenance home for sale just minutes from downtown West Jefferson. This home would make a great starter home or could continue as a great long-term rental for an investor. The home interior is finished throughout with pine tongue and groove wood walls. There is an oversized kitchen with plenty of room for dining. The bedrooms are all large, and an additional room off the kitchen could be used as a den or workout room. The exterior is clad with low-maintenance vinyl siding and a metal roof to last for years. The home sits at the end of the road, allowing for a quiet, peaceful setting with pastoral and mountain views. This property is priced to sell. Properties at this price point and size rarely last long on the market. Rental history is available upon request. Note: Most of this home has ceiling heights below 7 feet, which may not qualify the home for financing. If financing,
please consult with your lender prior to making any offer.
