About This Home
As of September 2024Located in the heart of Bluffton this charming 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom house is exactly what you are looking for. Hardwood floors, white trim, white cabinets, a fenced-in yard, and your own drive so you don't have to worry about on-street parking. Not only that, but the large upstairs bathroom features a double vanity so you will not have to worry about space while getting ready. After a long day, you may enjoy sitting and relaxing on the large covered porch. All appliances stay with the house except for the stove, which will be replaced with the stove in the new house (see pictures). Updates include a new metal roof in 2019 (with warranty), new kitchen and dining windows in 2018, and a new water heater in 2017. There is an owned water softener and wood stove (which can heat the whole house - although you should have it inspected before hooking it up again) in the basement that is currently not hooked up.
