Description
Historic charm meets country comfort — with modern conveniences just minutes away Step into the character of a 1901-built home offering 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and over 1,300 sq ft of living space. Set on a generous .64 acre lot, this property provides both privacy and room to grow. A large portion of the backyard is enclosed with low-maintenance vinyl fencing, while the remaining open yard invites endless possibilities — from gardens to outdoor entertaining. Built at the turn of the century, this home carries the timeless appeal of historic architecture. With thoughtful restoration, it can be transformed into a home that blends classic charm with modern comfort. Located in the quaint town of Viola, you’ll enjoy the country vibe while remaining close to everything you need. This property is being sold as-is, offering a rare opportunity for buyers or investors to restore it to its former glory. With its spacious lot, historic character, and prime location, it’s a canvas ready for your vision.
