Adorable 1947 Cottage in the country is an opportunity to renovate and renew for personal use or for a rental property investment! This 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home sits on 1.41 unrestricted acres in the Habersham Mills area and has multiple outbuildings and usable pasture land in back. Many of the charming 1940s features remain, such as oversized double-hung weighted windows, solid-core doors with vintage hardware, hardwood flooring, masonry fireplaces (currently used for space heaters), and parlor/living room in a traditional floor layout. Level to slightly-sloping grassed lot with framed 2-car garage and storage building. Stately oaks that are likely a century old or more give the home a timeless presence and make the location truly unique and desirable. Home has Trailwave fiber internet installed at location. Home sold "as-is" with seller making no repairs or modifications for loan requirements.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
