Description
Open House: 5/17 from 11 am - 1 pm. Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in the heart of Columbia! From the inviting front deck to the thoughtful interior updates, this home is full of character and functionality. The kitchen features a center island and stylish backsplash, with updated flooring in one of the bedrooms and some beautiful natural wood floors throughout. Before the current owners purchased in 2021, the home underwent a major remodel—including updates to the roof, gutters, plumbing, appliances, electric, flooring, sliding door, and some windows. The basement was also waterproofed, offering peace of mind and great storage potential. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of a 1-car garage and a full unfinished basement with laundry. Whether you're just starting out or looking to downsize, this move-in-ready gem offers a great blend of updates and charm!
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from July 10, 2025

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI would say my experience at Columbia Middle School was very trashy. Although the teachers were very kind and caring many other members of the staff were not. Many times when bullying would become a topic it was never taken care of and that takes a toll on a kid. In my overall experience I would not recommend Columbia Middle School.Other Review10mo ago - Columbia High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI don't have many positive things to say about this school. It is full of prissy wannabes, that are very rude. They have no respect for others and only care about themselves. They always boast about their great sports programs, but they struggled to even win more than two football games this year. Hopefully this helps other. Don't sent your kid to any of the schools in this district if you want them to succeed in school and in life!Other Review2y ago - Parkview Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am so impressed with the positive attitude and energy at this school. I always enjoy walking the halls and seeing student work everywhere. My daughter has thrived here and I couldn't be more happy. I only wish that I had went to a school like this.Parent Review16y ago - Eagleview Elementary School
