Conveniently located just 5 miles from TIEC and 9.5 miles from FETA parking with over 150 miles of horse trails!! Just 2 miles from Parker-Binns Vineyard, where you can enjoy fine wine, food, and entertainment! This home offers hardwood, carpet, and vinyl flooring, an open floor plan with cathedral ceilings upstairs, a galley kitchen, and an eat-in bar area. The home is listed as a 2-bedroom due to the septic permit, but it also includes two additional bonus rooms downstairs. Only one way ingress/egress. There is believed to be a creek on property, but up to buyer to verify. Also, propane is supposedly available at the house, buyer would need to verify. The home is surrounded by fencing, with some sections damaged by fallen trees during Hurricane Helene.

Previous renters kept horses on the property, and with a little work, this could easily become an outstanding farm property. Best of all, NO ZONING! The home is also listed with only 6 acres for $450,000 (See MLS 4386144).
