    MOTIVATED SELLER! Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes from Forest City and Rutherfordton, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath brick ranch is conveniently located near multiple restaurants and retail shops, as well as the new Legacy Soccer Park and Isothermal Community College. Lovingly maintained by the same family since it was built in 1968, the home features original wood floors and a wood burning fireplace in the living room. The large laundry room is accessible from the dining area and the sunroom, offering a flexible living space full of natural light. The .43 acre yard is partially fenced with room to garden, play, or entertain. A 2nd driveway leads to an outbuilding ideal for a workshop or additional storage. While the home does need some updates, it's a wonderful opportunity to customize a solid, well built home to reflect your personal style. Great location, motivated seller, this home won't last long!
