You'll find gorgeous dark stained oak floors throughout as well as newly installed retro mosaic tile flooring in each bathroom fitting of the time era of the house. The kitchen has brand new granite counters, cabinets, and a wonderful peninsula bar; a true gathering place for family and friends. There are three large bedrooms to go with the two completed renovated bathrooms. Also, enclosed and under air is a large recreational room perfect for a playroom, home office or a spot to watch the big game.The home has a large double driveway that will easy fit up to 6 cars and is nestled on a corner lot on a quiet, family friendly street. No need to drive though as you'll be less than a 5 minute walk to the Magnolia Community Garden, the West Ashley Farmers Market, Ackerman Park, dog park and the West Ashley Bikeway. The shops and restaurants of Avondale are a half mile away as is Harris Teeter and the soon to open Whole Foods market. Folly Beach is just a 10 mile drive and downtown is less than ten minutes.
Great location! Just down the street from the popular Avondale area. This home has a new architectural shingled roof and fresh paint in most of the rooms. The kitchen is large with lots of cabinets and storage space, with the original classic pine cabinets. This home has lots of character. The family room has tongue and groove wood walls with built-in bookshelves and cabinets. One of the guest bedrooms also has pine tongue and groove walls with built-in bookshelves. This bedroom would also make a great area for a home office. Most of the floors in the home are wood floors. Most of the ceilings are smooth. The two full baths are tile. There is a sunroom that is not included in the square footage but gives the owner approx. 280 more square feet for a nice extra living area. The prior ownerhad installed a window unit to cool this area that could still easily be done. The house still needs plenty of updating and is being sold in "as-is" condition, but it has great bones. This is a great opportunity to buy a house that can be moved into right now, and update it as you see fit in the future. The fully renovated homes in this neighborhood are selling for great prices. 1153 Barrett just closed for $340k and about the same size but no sunroom and 743 Magnolia recently closed for $322,455 and was only 1164 sq. ft. and no sunroom.
