About This Home

Don't let the square footage fool you -- this one lives large. Thoughtfully customized throughout, 208 Riggs St delivers 3 bedrooms and 2 fully rehabbed baths on the main level, plus a finished basement with an additional full rehabbed bath, bedroom, two open rec rooms, and a cleverly concealed laundry room tucked off the lower bath. Every inch has been put to work.
Custom built-ins set this home apart from anything else at this price point -- a built-in dining room seating nook, custom shoe racks, and barn doors throughout give the interior a curated, intentional character that buyers rarely find in this market. These aren't afterthoughts; they're the reason people remember this house.
Athens, TN offers convenient access to downtown amenities, McMinn County employment, and the scenic East Tennessee corridor -- all without the metro price tag.
FHA and VA financing eligible. Move-in ready with character to spare. Property was built prior to 1978 and lead based paint potentially exists. All data (incl sq ft) taken from prev MLS, Tax Records or current deed. Property offered as-is w/all faults; no post-closing repairs or payments will be made for any reason. Purchaser must execute sellers contract package. Buyer agrees to verify all information independently.
