About This Home

As of June 2021

Priced below tax value, adorable cottage on over 3 acres. Nice laying land that was a small farm at one time with a creek at the bottom of the hill. House has had some renovations with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and upgrades to the bathrooms. Beautiful oak floors throughout and fresh paint on the walls. Approximately half of the basement has been finished as second living quarters with a separate entrance and is currently rented. The gardens surrounding the house were magnificent at one time and could use a gardener's touch. A quick drive to Brevard or Dupont State Forest makes this an ideal get away or year round home.
