This 2 bedroom 1 bath home has much to offer. Centrally located to downtown Boone and Appalachian State. This would make a great first-time home or long-term rental option with its close proximity to the University. Originally in the former ETJ, home is located outside of Boone city limits with all the benefits of in-town convenience. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants. City water, sewage, and trash pick up are available. Roads are paved and maintained year-round. Nice flow from the kitchen to dining room, living room and bedrooms. Home has received recent kitchen and exterior updates. New plumbing throughout. Carpet was removed and exposed hardwood floors need a little tlc. This won't last long on, schedule your showing

Located in the Junaluska Community, this 2 bed/1 bath home is a short walk to downtown Boone. Hire HGTV's Chip and Joanna Gaines to help this fixer upper become an updated first home or great investment for rental property. There will remain an uninhabitable mobile home behind the house that no one has lived in for many years. The seller requires that the buyer would be responsible for fixing up or removing the mobile home from the land. This is reasonably priced to accommodate the cost of removal. Property is being sold AS IS.
