Priced to reflect and excite...! Welcome home to this charming one story ranch with unfinished basement. The home features two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. Located on a main road in Candler, NC this great home is conveniently located just a couple of miles away from stores, restaurants, lodging, gas stations, I-40 and more, and is less than 10 miles to downtown Asheville, NC. The back yard is mostly fenced, has a patio, deck, shed, and a small wooded area where there is a peaceful, secluded, hilltop sitting area. The driveway used to extend through the gate and up behind the house. So many possibilities with this home. The seller had an extremely detailed and thorough pre-listing home inspection and the report with its summary is available to buyer’s agents, in the MLS. It does have quirks, noted in the detailed home inspection report that make it so it may or may not qualify for a loan. The property is being sold AS-IS and the seller will make no repairs. Price reflects.
