Opportunity knocks North of the Black Warrior River! This 3-bed, 2-bath home sits on a spacious 0.8(+/-) acre lot and is perfectly situated less than 4 miles from local schools, with no traffic lights on the way to the elementary school! While the home requires work on some deferred maintenance, it is a fantastic "good bones" property with major updates already started, including an HVAC system less than 2 years old and an updated primary bath. The home is being sold As-is, offering a perfect canvas to build instant equity. Interior Highlights * Spacious Kitchen: Features oak cabinetry and ample counter space. Functional Spaces: Large dining area and a roomy laundry room complete with a mop sink. Primary Suite: Includes a walk-in closet and a modernized bathroom. Family Room: Large & open
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
