HUGE PRICE REDUCTION! QUALIFIES FOR RENOVATION LOAN FINANCING, SO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A FLIPPER TO MAKE THIS HOME YOURS! Renovation opportunity near Lake Allatoona with much of the major work already completed. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on 1.05 acres with adjoining Corps of Engineers land, winter lake views, and no HOA. Recent improvements include new HVAC, new ductwork, new sheetrock, new subflooring, new paint, new siding, and a new water heater. The home is ready for the next owner to complete the interior with their preferred finishes while potentially building substantial equity into the $400s depending on the final improvements. Enjoy a short walk to Lake Allatoona and an easy golf cart ride to Allatoona Landing Marina. With more than an acre and no HOA restrictions, there is plenty of room to keep your boat, RV, trailer, or equipment at home instead of paying for storage. The property also offers space for a workshop, detached garage, or additional outbuildings. Create a modern farmhouse, lake retreat, full-time residence, second home, short-term rental, or investment property near LakePoint Sports. Opportunities this close to Lake Allatoona with acreage, flexibility, and renovation potential are hard to find. Bring your vision and make this home yours!
