Entire floor system has been completely redone including new structural piers, new 2x10 joist, 3/4” advantech flooring, LVP flooring, 7”1/4 base, 5”1/2 crown. Freshly painted white walls with black trim and new interior doors. New kitchen pantry area with shelving, new shiplap area in utility room with closet and washer and dryer hookups. New plumbing from kitchen through whole house with PEX piping. Master bath has a jacuzzi tub, stand up shower, vanity, but needs a toilet hooked up. Front porch area with 6 windows and a front storm door. Front porch all seasons room is 7x30’. Open floor concept through kitchen and living room. Custom beam stained in a dark espresso with a ceiling mounted 65” tv the tilts, changes height, and swivels so you can view from the kitchen or living room. Master bedroom is 16x16 with a 5’x16’ closet with two tiers of clothing racks. The second bedroom is a 12x16 with new sheetrock.
The home will need a few things, we are willing to work out a few things on the deal for the right offer. The house needs kitchen cabinets mainly for it to be move in ready. Super cute and solid little house. Big driveway in rear with alley access, small hangout/fire pit area, small storage building on concrete pad. Neighbors are very friendly and it’s right off the Main Street in metropolis 12 minutes from paducah.
Reason for selling, I own a construction company and have bought a farm. We were originally going to keep the home and live in it for a while but a new opportunity presented itself and we couldn’t turn it down. We are open to all reasonable offers. I’m selling at my cost excluding the labor it took to buy and remodel the house. This house is structurally in great shape, it needs a few things here and there but is an awesome opportunity for a starter home for a small family. I am selling this house myself currently. 270-217-7180. Serious inquiries only.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been in this school system for 9 years with children at every grade level throughout the district. This has definitely become "Home" for our family. In our experience, the teacher involvement and care for the children Far Exceeds the call of duty at every grade level. Even as the principals changed hands within this school, the integrity and standards of the school were never compromised. Even as we prepare to leave this area, we are looking for schools that have nothing less than the standards of "Home." Thank You MES for Some wonderful childhood memories for my kids!Parent Review13y ago - Massac County High School
