Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and shows evidence of significant past renovations that appear to be within the 5 to 15-year range. While the home was originally built in 1920, the interior features updated elements including a kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, modern bathrooms with a large soaking tub, and well-maintained hardwood flooring. The presence of crown molding, updated light fixtures, and a painted brick fireplace indicates the home has been well-maintained. It does not reach the 'excellent' level as the styles of the cabinetry and tile work are not brand new, but it far exceeds the 'fair' category due to its high level of finish and lack of immediate deferred maintenance.
The property features an assumable VA mortgage with a low interest rate, offering qualified buyers significant monthly savings compared to current market financing options.
Situated in the desirable 37206 zip code just minutes from downtown Nashville, this home offers exceptional proximity to the city's best dining, entertainment, and employment hubs.
The rare combination of a covered porch and a fully fenced front and back yard provides a secure and versatile outdoor space for families, pets, and entertaining.
The assigned high school has a low performance rating, which may be a significant consideration for families prioritizing top-tier educational metrics.
As a century-old home built in 1920, the property may require more frequent maintenance and updates to its aging systems compared to newer residential constructions.
