MOTIVATED SELLER! A fantastic residential/commercial opportunity on the outskirts of Oriental! A two-bedroom historic (ca. 1935) home awaits under the shade of mature trees with charming potential. Located on Rt. 55 near its intersection w/ Kershaw Road, this property offers so many possibilities for the homeowner or investor... The historic nature of the residence has been updated with a great metal roof, vinyl windows, mini-split heat pumps, new vinyl siding and porch sliding door (May 2025) and so much more! The 7'4'' x 17'4'' covered front porch welcomes you and is ushers you into the comfortable Living Room, which connects to the bedrooms and kitchen. You'll appreciate the versatility offered by the home's design and flow, which circulates traffic very well & clearly well-adapted for possible business use, as well as a cozy residence! The front bedroom has original wood floors and would make a splendid front office. The large master bedroom is located in the quiet center of the house and also has wood floors and access to the utility area (it would make for an excellent storage and/or work area, too) and its attached full bathroom. You'll be sure to be drawn to the open, sunny Country Kitchen with its tiled floor and access to an immense side deck. The deck, although in need of some TLC, is an achievement of practical design and has a privacy fence which separates you from the view of Rt. 55 and is sure to be your personal retreat from the cares of the world! There's also an artistic pergola and a storage building on the deck, too!! The yard has been well-maintained and would be a great spot for a garage or extra parking... This property is UNRESTRICTED BY DEED, beyond Oriental's zoning AND not located within the 100-year flood zone!! You can let your dreams guide you & be part of what makes Oriental so unique and special! Take a look soon... This property is priced to sell and won't be on the market much longer!!
