    What's special

    JUST REDUCED AND READY FOR A BUYER This wonderfully appointed, MOVE IN READY 3 BDR home ( with 1 BDR currently being used as an office but able to easily be converted back to a BDR) is available for immediate occupancy. And (INVESTORS TAKE NOTE ) it sits on a full basement which could be finished as an income producing apartment with private ground level entry. The location is really convenient for those seeking the benefit of an in -town, 1 level, easy to maintain home but the proximity to the growing Carilion complex makes it also appealing to investors wishing to capitalize on the strong rental demand in that area. This home has lots of great features including beautiful hardwood & tile floors, a kitchen with custom butcher block counter tops, a primary suite with walk-in closet AND a luxuriously spacious bathroom w/jetted tub &lovely fixtures. There's a washer & dryer in an enclosed area right off of the bathroom and near the walk in closet which makes putting away the laundry a breeze. The home has a 30-40 year shingle roof (installed in 2016) and numerous systems updates in 2018. A large recently refurbished deck is accessed off of the kitchen extending the living space to the great outdoors and providing practically year round usage. A big backyard stretches down to a small stream below and allows for gardening or recreation. Plus there is private , off-street parking which can accommodate several vehicles. previously , there was an apartment in the basement when this owner first purchased the property. That was removed but likely could be re3 installed to a better standard than what was there before. Plenty of room to do so and the plumbing is still roughed in. The level is just used for good dry storage now but has its own separate access. and allows privacy ...great investment opportunity. Or the potential to live on main level, rent out the ground level and pay for the house by doing so. For a South Roanoke property in such a convenient location with all these amenities , in move condition, and with room for expansion if desired ,this is a great buy. Come take a look.
