Older home on 19 acre tract that is about half wooded and half cleared. The home is accessed by a dirt driveway off of Poors Ford Road. House has not been lived in for many years and owners are selling AS-IS. There is approximately 700 feet of road frontage on Poors Ford Road. The east side of the property connects on the Highway 221 South. There is approximately 100 feet of road frontage on 221 S, but no driveway off 221. The owners are disclosing that the Highway 221 Four Lane Project will affect this parcel in the next planned round. It appears based on DOT drawings that they will purchase a portion in the middle of this tract that would include the 974 SF house. Approximate acreage to be purchased is 6 which will leave 13 acres split with maybe 3 acre portion still on Poors Ford and the remaining acreage that has road frontage on 221S which will remain a 2 lane road at that part. Owners say a small creek starts in the middle and flows towards Hwy 221S.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
