Find your own private oasis in the beautiful Avery's Creek area! This cute bungalow is all about the potential. The setting is gorgeous with a lush/level lot and creek running along the entire right side of the property (not in a flood plain/house is elevated/does not flood). In its better days this was the backdrop for campfires, summer fun in the water, and the stuff childhood dreams are made of. All it would take is a good weedeater and a machete to open this area back up. The house is set well off the road and it's very quiet. You can listen to the babbling creek from the covered porch and deck and enjoy gorgeous views of the mature yard. The interior needs an overhaul to reach its full potential. The office "could" serve as a 2nd bedroom but this is the access area to the bath. A remodeled version of this home would be ideal for owner occupants and investors alike, and it would honestly make a killer vacation rental! The location is ideal.... less than 10 minutes to I-26, and 10-15 minutes to AVL Airport, Blue Ridge Parkway, NC Arborteum, French Broad River, hiking, kayaking, and all kinds of restaurants, shopping, etc. on Long Shoals Rd. This one won't make sense for everyone, but the buyer that restores the beauty to this home will certainly reap the rewards in the long run! Sold "As Is, No Repairs". Seller will not make repairs.
