Great potential for Commerical property just below the industrial park area on Ray Taylor road, cute well built brick home on the outskirts of town. A true fixer-upper!! Lots of potential in this home very close to town with large rooms and easy access!! This house has potential for any family that likes a project or the perfect location for an Air B and B or commercial office with plenty of parking. . Just minutes into downtown West Jefferson, if needed you could walk to town where all the great amenities are!! Restaurants, art galleries, breweries, and even a farmers market on Wednesday and Saturday. This home can be hooked up to city water and city sewer and possibly natural gas which make the land more desirable. Call today to preview.
