Property being sold as-is Roof: Older; it is estimated to be 25+ years old. The owner believes it was put on in the early 1990s (it was 5 to 6 years old when they moved in). HVAC: New A/C unit installed roughly 4 to 7 years ago. Paint: Recently painted the area from the front back to the washroom in the bedroom. Kitchen: Very large with all white cabinets, a full-length pantry, and a half-pantry/spice rack with drawers. Flooring is rolled-out vinyl. It features a newer dishwasher, a new stove (1 to 3 years old), and a range top (8 to 9 years old). The owner cleans the appliances immediately after use, so there is no buildup. The carpet is original from when the owners moved in 28 years ago.
South Jackson, located between Downtown Jackson and Byram, is a residential and civic Jackson neighborhood with a tree-lined street grid and a strong sense of place. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Terry Road near Raymond Road, where storefront churches, barbershops, takeout counters, and corner markets set a steady, everyday rhythm. Housing ranges from mid-century ranches to brick cottages, with pockets of larger lots and long front porches. Jackson State University brings campus energy, lectures, and game-day traffic to nearby streets. Battlefield Park and the Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium add open green space and big-event scale. The Jackson Zoo and the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum frame weekend itineraries with culture and history.
