This unique old home was once lovely and picturesque as it nestled against the hillside and it can be made beautiful again with that remodeler's touch. Sporting six rooms plus front and back porches with lots of land to enjoy. If you love country living, especially in Menlo, Georgia, this is your chance to own a sprawling piece of local history. Ridge Street connects Hwy 48 and the Jamestown Road. Standing timber could be a big plus. The potential is enormous. Call today! Structures will require extensive remodeling and will not qualify for FHA, VA, USDA, etc., in its current condition.
