About This Home
Welcome to 223 Lomax Ave, South Boston, VA — a move-in ready, fully wheelchair accessible single-family home built in 2015, offering 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and 960 square feet of comfortable living space on a spacious .4-acre lot. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, and the kitchen has been freshly updated with new upper cabinets, new countertops, and updated appliances including a refrigerator, stove, and range hood. All new ceiling fans and light fixtures have been installed throughout, adding a fresh, modern touch to every room. Every interior doorway measures a full 36 inches wide, making the home fully accessible for wheelchair users and those with mobility needs. The property also includes washer and dryer hookups, adding everyday convenience for the next owner. Major systems are in excellent shape — the heat pump was just replaced in July 2026, which provides year-round efficiency, all electrical receptacles have been updated, and all air ducts were recently professionally cleaned by Stanley Steemer. Outside, the generous lot offers plenty of space, and the property features two separate water and sewer meters, presenting a rare opportunity to potentially divide the land into two lots — an attractive bonus for investors and savvy buyers alike. Don't miss your chance to own this well-cared-for, accessible, and opportunity-rich property in the heart of Halifax County!
