Realtor Comments
Three Bedroom/ 2 full bathrooms makes this a great starter home or investment property. Will likely not qualify for government loans due to needing updates and the estate has no resources to do repairs/updates. Just a few houses from Kanawha Boulevard and the riverfront. Convenient downtown location. This home also has off-street parking and a nice fenced in backyard.
