This home features a breezy screened-in front porch, a large double lot, fully fenced-in yard, a side-yard deck, and off-street parking in both the front and rear. Inside there have been some updates such as newer windows, recently remodeled bathrooms, and an updated kitchen with granite counters and backsplash. You will enjoy cooking on the gourmet propane stove while your guests keep you company around the butcher block countertop kitchen island. The kitchen also features stainless appliances and a separate beer/wine fridge. The third bedroom would function well as a work-from-home office space or kids' bedroom. The partially finished basement offers many possibilities for use: laundry, storage, a workshop, a space for hobbies, and a door to the backyard/driveway in the rear of the home. This home is being sold AS-IS due to the sellers' inability to facilitate repairs that potentially come up in the home inspection. With a few more updates (such as flooring and some work in the basement), this home will be a true gem! The community is packed with appealing amenities such as: a rentable clubhouse, a playground, walking trails, boat slips, a swimming pier, kayak launches, and grassy fields. Experience the best of the Bay Life just 2 blocks from the South River. The neighborhood feeds to the highly rated Central MS/South River HS school district.
