About This Home

As of June 2025

Nestled on a charming corner lot just steps from downtown Columbia, this 1.5-story historic residence, built in 1840, offers a unique blend of vintage character. The home features 2 cozy bedrooms, a full bathroom, a functional kitchen, & a welcoming family room. Additional amenities include a covered porch perfect for leisurely afternoons, a carport providing sheltered parking, & a additional shed for xtra storage or creative projects.

Alternatively, the seller is open to removing the existing structure, allowing new owners to construct a custom home on this desirable lot. Whether you're passionate about restoring historic homes or envision building anew in a prime location, this property offers a canvas for your real estate aspirations. Fix the foundation issues & bring this home back to life!
