DRASTIC REDUCTION! Was priced at $59,000. This neat home needs no work and would make excellent retirement or rental home. Quiet, country setting away from the hustle and bustle but yet minutes to Dothan, AL, or small town shopping. Home has high ceilings and lots of charm. Split bedroom floor plan. Central heat/air (heat pump). Stove, fridge, and microwave are only 3 years old and stay. Some furnishings may stay including the dishes. New septic 2 years ago. Laminate flooring, knockdown sheetrock walls, ceiling fans in all rooms. Two sheds have lots of room for vehicle garage and workshop. Must see to appreciate!
