About this home

Step into this adorable 1960's bungalow, sitting on just under half an acre with half of it untouched. The 2 bedroom 1 bathroom house was painted in the summer of 2025, and has had some cleaning up of the property. Only 7 minutes to 74, with easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway as well. Also only a 25 minute drive into downtown Waynesville. Whether you want to remodel the home and resell or build on the other side of the property there are so many options with this lot and so much potential. The home has been vacant for about 3 years but has been looked after.
