Property Description
Spacious and Open! This 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom doublewide mobile home (2002) sits on a lovely .29-acre lot and offers space, functionality, and tons of potential. No restrictions! In 2023 the home was upgraded with a new roof and a Richard King Spring Water well with an insulated well house. Outside features include a 2-car carport, a huge 24x30 workshop on a concrete slab with iron beams wired for electricity, plus an additional 24x12 storage shed. The home is insurable and located in the highly sought-after A-Rated Van School District, making this a great option for families, investors, or buyers looking for a value-add opportunity. Low taxes! And FM 279 road frontage makes this an excellent opportunity to run a business from the shop. With some updates, this property could truly shine. Owner is offering $9k in concessions to put towards new flooring or HVAC to allow the next owner to add their personal touch and build instant value. Mobile home has never been moved for easier financing.
