Featuring three bedrooms, two full baths and real living space. At just over 1,300 square feet, the layout does not waste an inch.

Three genuinely large bedrooms and two full bathrooms round out a floorplan that lives bigger than its square footage suggests. The upgrades that actually matter! A lot of homes get "updated" with paint and new light fixtures. This one got the upgrades that protect your investment for the next 20 years. 2022: New roof, new heat pump (serviced twice yearly) with all-new ductwork, full plumbing replacement including the sewer line and a meter box upgrade completed by a licensed electrician. Kitchen renovation completed the same year. 2024: All subfloors replaced, with 100% waterproof flooring installed in key areas. New covered front porch deck and awning added. Add in brick underpinning, an attached carport and an updated gutter system, and you're looking at a home where the bones and the systems have been handled — not just the surface. A survey was completed in 2022 and is available on request, which can save you time and money during due diligence. Move-in ready, appliances included All appliances stay, including the washer and dryer — one less expense and one less thing to worry about before you settle in. Why it works - Homes with this much recent infrastructure work rarely come up at this price point, and even more rarely in a walkable Downtown Pickens location. Buyers looking for a low-maintenance primary residence and investors looking for a tenant-ready property with minimal near-term capital needs should both take this one into serious consideration!
