This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom single-family home offers over 1000 square feet of living space in a convenient Boiling Springs location. Just minutes from Highway 9, I-85, and the University of South Carolina Upstate, this property is an excellent opportunity for investors seeking a student rental or for first-time homebuyers looking to build equity in a rapidly growing town. While the property could benefit from some minor cosmetic updates, such as fresh paint and general touch-ups, it has solid potential and is ready for your personal touches. Outside, the yard offers plenty of space but could use some trimming and cleanup to bring it back to its full potential. This property is For Sale By Owner and is being sold as-is. Asking price: $170,000. The home has been priced to reflect the cosmetic updates it needs, giving buyers an excellent opportunity to add value through relatively minor improvements.
