Four bedrooms, two full baths, all on one level. No stairs to climb. The porch runs the entire front of the house. It's covered and deep enough for real furniture, not just a couple of rocking chairs stuck by the door. Inside, the kitchen opens right into the living room, so whoever's cooking is still part of the conversation. Stainless appliances including a gas range, wood cabinets, and a double sink under a window. The peninsula has room to pull up a couple of stools. The home was built in 2009 on just over half an acre in Burke County, with no city taxes to be paid every year. Vinyl siding is new as of 2025 and conveys with a lifetime warranty to the next owner. Heat pump and central air both date to 2021. Water heater is electric. Public water through Icard Township Water Department, and the septic system was permitted through Burke County for four bedrooms. That gas stove is the only thing on propane. Everything else runs electric, so the tank lasts a good while. The tank is leased through James Oxygen and new owners will have to establish the account. An architectural shingle roof is original to the 2009 build, but has no disclosed concerns. A large storage shed conveys with the property and the side driveway has 30 and 50 amp breakers for RV Storage. The back deck is screened and plenty of room in the yard for a garden, fire pit or recreation.
