Remarks:

Owners have essentially rebuilt this home in the last 7 years to include new plumbing, electrical, roof, windows, walls, siding, two new HVAC systems for top and middle units. In 2022 owners rented two units for 9 months and brought in $50,000 in revenue. In 2023 they rented for 6 months then opened up and used entire home for family for the first 6 months of 2024. The top and bottom units are current rentals while the owners reside in the middle unit. The stairs to the middle unit have been blocked off, but can be reopened easily to give access to middle unit. This is a rare find with approximately 140' of river frontage. Big deck overlooks the river and the level backyard is great for picnics or just relaxing and listening to the sounds of the river. This home would be a great 1031 exchange/investment. Close proximity to Bryson and Cherokee, come explore all that western NC has to offer. No damage occurred to home from hurricane Helene so don't miss out on this great opportunity!
