About This Home
You have probably seen listings that say, "Come put your finishing touches on this." With this listing, you can put all the touches on it. This property was purchased as an investment property by seller, but he ended up gutting it and now it is essentially a shell. The plan was to finish it as a two bed, two bath home, and plans have already been approved by the city. Circumstances changed, and seller is putting the home on the market as is. Exterior is in good shape, roof is six year old, and windows are newer. The deck overlooks a large backyard, and although there isn't a garage, there is room to add one, and there is currently off street parking. Furnace that comes with property is also three years old. Location is just across from Francis Marion Intermediate School, and potential for a profitable rental property here is still good. Easy to show, bring your construction savvy buyers and check this one out.
