Home has cleared inspection and appraised at contract price and is ready for a smooth closing. This is not a typical flip.

Previous contract terminated due to buyer's financing. Home has cleared inspection and appraised at contract price and is ready for a smooth closing. This is not a typical flip. The home was originally renovated prior to the sellers' purchase in 2021, and after taking ownership, the current sellers invested more than $86,000 in additional improvements focused on long-term reliability, functionality, and durability rather than surface-level cosmetics. Their post-purchase investment included a new roof, a new HVAC system with smart thermostat capability, replacement of sixteen windows over two phases, rebuilt front and rear porches, upgraded gutters and drainage, updated soffits and fascia, improved laundry hookups, refreshed landscaping, a rebuilt carport/garage structure, new fencing, and a transferable home warranty. These seller-installed upgrades address the expensive, often deferred items that buyers typically inherit, giving the next owner peace of mind and modern system performance. Inside, the home balances historic character with everyday functionality. The main level features a light-filled living room, a dedicated dining area, and an updated kitchen with modern appliances and clean lines, along with a half bath and a conveniently located laundry closet. Just beyond, a comfortable den anchored by a decorative white-brick fireplace adds flexible space that works well as a second living area, office, or media room, creating a natural flow that feels intentional and livable. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are located on the same level and are served by a shared hallway bath. This layout is well-suited for buyers who prefer sleeping quarters separated from main living spaces or who value having all bedrooms grouped together, while maintaining a practical and efficient footprint. Outside, the property offers two covered parking spaces in addition to an extra garage bay that can easily function as a workshop, home gym, studio, or storage area. The home is located along Ohio Avenue, providing convenient in-town access while remaining just eighteen minutes from downtown Johnson City and under an hour from Asheville.
639 Ohio Ave is part of Erwin's historic Pottery Home district, a small early-1900s enclave originally built for Clinchfield Pottery workers and known for its charm, walkability, and deep roots in the community. Very few homes in this area have received this level of post-purchase investment while preserving their historic character. If you're seeking a move-in-ready historic home where the major systems have already been addressed and the heavy lifting is done, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a carefully stewarded piece of Erwin's history. All information is provided as a courtesy and is believed to be accurate but not guaranteed. Buyers and their agents are encouraged to verify all details independently.
