You have to be a vissionary when it comes to purchasing this 80+ year old home. .. it was originally the Mount Carmel Baptist Church #2 built around 1940.. .Then the current owner's mother and father purchased the property and remodeled it in 1953 to be their home. The old wood siding is so charming and picturesque it begs to be reused, salvaged. It has been in the same family since 1952 handed down to the Oldest son who lived there up until around 2018/2019 when he needed something without stairs. Anyway as you walk around this almost 2 and 1/2 acres of land, imagine putting up another house or two, I am sure the land could allow for 3 total homes on it. .. the east side of property runs along a creek, and ends at pond in back, pond is partially on your land and partially on neighbors and fed from the creek. This is truly a part of history and a quant area to call home. Close to The Charter School that is opening 2024 at old Tamassee - Salem High campus. Home would need a major overhaul to make livable to most standards today. Plumbing, electric have been updated over the years. Roof is original as far as Seller can remember. Two additions have been added over the years the Back Bedroom on North Side. .. and Master Bedroom with Sitting room adjacent.
