About this House

Wonderful low maintance brick ranch home on .742 acres just a few minutes from downtown Sparta and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Perked for 3 bedroom home (per tax records) but has only 2 bonafide bedrooms as one was converted to a large bathroom and laundry room. Back 10 foot wide deck spans the full width of the house (61 feet) with mountain and pastoral views. "Mountain level" lot with ample space for large garden and firepit. Full basement with access to back yard could become extra living space or awesome workshop. GREAT access is definitely a plus. Only appliance in place is the dishwasher. There is a 10' X 10' bonus room at the back of the garage that would double as an office, craft room, etc. and can only be accessed through garage. Some updating could turn this house to a charming and inviting home.

278 Tedder Rd, Sparta, NC 28675 is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,050 sqft single-family home built in 1981. It last sold for $150,000 on Aug 11, 2020. It is currently off market. The Trulia Estimate is $240,100, with a rent estimate of $1,209/month.

i would just like to say that i think that certain kids get picked on and singled out because of who they are not$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.thats how its always been in alleghany county schools.the bullying needs to stop and sadly there is more bullying from some teachers than there are the students themselves.a good teacher cares about her studentsbut quite often that is not the case.if u respect them as students then they will respect you as teachers.how u approach and talk to them makes all the difference in the world.i dont know why this certain teacher has a problem with my son but according to her and the pricipal he is disrupting the whole class and driving the teacher nuts but her personal problem may have something to do with the fact that she cant cope with certain things.he has been moved out of her homeroom thank god. he answered one of my prayers about this cituation and im sure he will answer the rest.im not a parent that stands by andlets her child be singled out bullied out and treated unfairly. not happening!!!!!!!!
