Description
You have probably seen listings that say, "Come put your finishing touches on this." With this listing, you can put all the touches on it. This property was purchased as an investment property by seller, but he ended up gutting it and now it is essentially a shell. The plan was to finish it as a two bed, two bath home, and plans have already been approved by the city. Circumstances changed, and seller is putting the home on the market as is. Exterior is in good shape, roof is six year old, and windows are newer. The deck overlooks a large backyard, and although there isn't a garage, there is room to add one, and there is currently off street parking. Furnace that comes with property is also three years old. Location is just across from Francis Marion Intermediate School, and potential for a profitable rental property here is still good. Easy to show, bring your construction savvy buyers and check this one out.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son has been attending this school for 2 years and they absolutely refuse to give me my son's school records even after I presented evidence of my relationship to the student. I presented evidence of my relationship to Jeff Kost (Admin Assistant of Student Support Services) and Janelle Brouwer (Superintendent) and they both flat out refused to help me. It even states in the board policy (506.1) that “parents, eligible students, and other individuals authorized in accordance with law will have a right to access the student's records upon request without unnecessary delay and in no instance more than forty-five calendar days after the request is made."Parent Review1y ago - Starry Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe administration is very condescending to parents. trying to communicate with the office staff about what you want for your child ends up being an argument about what the office assistant thinks you should do with your child. Learning average. It's basically a glorified free daycare. I would not recommend this place to anyone, save your sanity and allow your kids to thrive somewhere else. Anywhere else would be better than the experience had at this school.Parent Review4y ago - Vernon Middle School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSome of the teachers at this school seem too busy to take the extra time to work (academically) with my son who has been diagnosed with ADHD and Non-Verbal Learning Disorder. However, most of the teachers are friendly, professional, effective and dedicated. My son has had some behavioral issues and the school usually disciplines him swiftly and fairly. I would give this school an overall grade of a B+.Parent Review8y ago
