Property Description

A really remarkable opportunity for an owner or investor. (JUST LISTED on Sunday, January 28th). Located in Valentine Hills, off Lydell Road, between Woodman and Parham, near J. Sargent Reynolds, Our Lady of Lourdes and the newly energized Lakeside area, think Final Gravity Brewing, Love Shack, Lewis Ginter, Bryan Park Farmers Market, the list of neighborhood amenities goes on and on. This is a brick and slate roof home built by John Stinson, a renown local builder who would build a home on a handshake. Many significant improvements have been made to the home over the years by the current owner who has owned the home for over 30 years. Unfortunately she has not been able to keep up with property the last few years and it, the home, now wants and needs a new owner. Some of the most notable features of the property are that it sits on a corner lot, framed by a mature holly tree on one side and a magnolia tree on the other. A circular drive provides front door access. Cruise through the neighborhood and you'll see many other homes with similar architectural features and quality of construction. (The home right across the street just sold for $464,950.) You'll need to do some work on the property as the heating system is shot and it wants a fresh coat of paint throughout as well as new carpet and refinishing the floors. A project got started on the lower lever but not finished and the pump for the sports pool isn't working. There's also a small leak in the roof, probably just a valley or dislodged shingle but please feel free to bring your contractor along so you can get a handle on the property before submitting an offer. Thanks for considering this property - you'll be glad you did.
