About this House

Welcome to this fixer upper with so much history. This was an original mill home built for the mill workers. It has been passed on through the family from generation to generation. As you walk into the sunporch just imagine sitting and watch the day go by. There are 2 good size bedrooms and one bath. The backyard is fully fenced in, so the kids or pets can play safely. The beautiful Japanese Maple trees in the front yard were brought over from Japan and were planted here over 80 years ago. Many of the Japanese Maples in this neighborhood were from cuttings of these trees. The roof was replaced in 2017, the stains in the ceiling are from the prior roof. Recently, this home was used as a full time rental. It will be sold "AS IS". Come see this home and imagine the possibilities!

    "In Oconee county/seneca there is a lot of family and it is a small town as of right now but everyone pretty much knows everyone. The “town” is getting a lot bigger and they are making it like city and and they’re 5 year plan is terrible if you are looking for a rural area but if you are looking for a urban area I would recommend looking elsewhere"

    "We’ve lived here over a year and it’s very quiet and everyone kinda keeps to themselves. My only complaint would be people tend to speed in the neighborhood and that does bother me since we have a child & dog so we tend to walk a lot. "

    "There’s really not a lot to not like for a dog owner. Most neighborhoods have backyard space that is fenced in for the dog to run around, and you can walk your dog around the neighborhoods as well. One thing that they may not like is that there’s no where to throw away doggie bags if you pick up after your dog. Which, mostly no one would want a doggie bag trash can near their front yard, but it’s not like our neighborhoods have nice side walks to walk on, and even the park doesn’t have the doggie bag trash can. Other than that and people flying up and down the road, there’s not much a dog owner wouldn’t like. "

    "There's no community events, in this neighborhood. Mostly retired people, living here, with a hand full of young edults. This is a mixed race neighborhood, which every body gets along, with the exception of one, who recently left after beating up his livein girlfriend, he still owns his dilapidated home, but at least him and his drugs are gone for now. Where approximately 1 1/2 miles from shopping, which includes Wal-Mart, two shopping centers and a dozen diffrent places too eat and two gas stations within a mile."
