Charming Southeast Lake Opportunity – Minutes from Ruffner Mountain Nature Preserve! Full of potential, this Southeast Lake gem is ready for new life. Previously used as a rental, the home needs some TLC—but the charm is already here. Enjoy the inviting front porch and step inside to a cozy living room with a fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases. Original hardwood floors and vintage doorknobs add timeless character throughout. There’s a separate dining room and an eat-in kitchen, plus a laundry area conveniently located just off the kitchen. Hardwood and tile flooring span most of the home, with the kitchen ready for your personal touch. Step out onto the open back deck—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A separate garage adds even more value. With a little work, this home could shine!
