About this home

There’s a lot to love about this spacious, one-story home in the well-established Coldstream neighborhood. With 5 bedrooms and 2,469 square feet, this classic ranch offers the kind of space that can be hard to find, all on one level.Inside, beautiful red oak hardwood floors have been protected under carpet for many years, and the original bathroom tile is in great condition, adding a touch of vintage character that feels right at home with today’s return to classic design. The home is move-in ready as it is, while also offering plenty of opportunity to make modern updates over time and truly make it your own.Outside, the large corner lot provides plenty of room for gardening (blueberries, banana trees, and herbs currently in place), play, pets or simply enjoying the outdoors. Mature landscaping brings an array of color in the spring and fall, while a wooded buffer along the backyard adds a welcome sense of privacy. Located near the entrance of Coldstream, the home offers easy access in and out of the neighborhood and is approximately five minutes from the Lake Murray Dam and public boat ramp. Saluda Shoals Park is also nearby for trails, river access and outdoor recreation. Shopping, dining and entertainment are within easy reach, including Columbiana, Downtown Columbia and the University of South Carolina, with Fort Jackson approximately 25 minutes away.Five bedrooms, one-story living, a large yard and a location that puts some of the Midlands’ best recreation and conveniences close to home. This is a home you can enjoy now and make your own for years to come. Disclaimer: CMLS has not reviewed and, therefore, does not endorse vendors who may appear in listings.
