Description

This is a great opportunity to put some work in and bring this home back to its glory. It is in a great location in Swannanoa and easy access to town. The home needs a lot of work, including a new roof, flooring, kitchen, hvac system, deck and cosmetics. But it is priced accordingly for you to make this great lot work for a wonderful home. The home has been winterized and so no power or water is currently on. Come take a look!This is a great opportunity to put some work in and bring this home back to its glory.
