This home is by definition a home with potential, only needing your cosmetic touches and aesthetic. The large columnar fireplace takes center stage as a focal point of the combination dining and living area. The living space flows into the wider galley style kitchen making it great for entertaining friends and family. The rooms are sized smartly so that your time is not taken in maintaining overly large spaces, but rather enjoying the nearby New River, hiking trails, downtown shopping in West Jefferson, or the overall area in general. This makes it potentially ideal for empty nesters who want to downsize, 2-3 person families, or single individuals looking for space for an office and a guest bedroom. You are only a scenic drive to some larger entertainment venues as well. If you like racing Wilkesboro Speedway is about an hour away. If sports are your thing then Appalachian State is also about an hours drive. If it's the stage for you, how about Barter Theater which only takes a little over an hour. Downstairs is a blank slate unfinished basement that features another woodburning fireplace and the laundry. Would make a great hobby space, theater room, game space, or simply storage.
