A charming SOLID three-bedroom house on treelined Howle Avenue on James Island, minutes from downtown Charleston and Folly Beach. Walk in three minutes to one of the best music venues in the state with live music seven days a week, usually a concert on the deck and another inside, with a farmer's market every Sunday (the Pour House). Walk in four minutes to Charleston's finest independent movie complex with several small theaters, currently showing six movies, often box office smashes as well as indie productions (Terrace Theater). Also a four-minute walk to more restaurants and shops than you can count, and a short drive to James Island County Park with its Holiday Festival of Lights, the Melton Peter Demetre Park, multiple boat landings, the Municipal Golf Course, . . .West Ashley Greenway and much more. ----- Large .38 acre lot zoned by the City of Charleston for a detached mother-in-law suite or accessory dwelling unit (ADU) per city regulations. ----- Exterior of house is freshly painted white with Charleston Green front door that features attractive double-paned windows at eye level (eaves have not been painted recently). Interior needs to be painted and is prepped. There are true hardwood floors throughout and screened porch in back. Roof is five years old and constructed according to South Carolina Safe Home's stringent requirements that include storm-resistance, rafter straps, architectural shingles, and a 50 year materials warranty with 25 year workmanship warranty. ----- The house needs to be updated, and kitchen needs a COMPLETE remodeling, which gives a new owner the chance to do it their way. There was some settling in the kitchen, which was repaired this past summer, but floor tiles have not been replaced. House has been in one family for 68 years. Pictures were taken with a regular camera lens and not a wide-angle lens that can make rooms look bigger than they are. The stove, refrigerator, washer and dryer convey along with many extra cinderblocks and bricks, and nice lawn mower. Fireplace tools for the wood burning fireplace, which is in the master bedroom, also convey. House is being sold AS-IS (no repairs). Cash or proof of funds required.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
