Agent Description

This classic brick ranch offers space, flexibility, and room to make it your own, all in a convenient location just off Leesburg Road, minutes from Fort Jackson and downtown Columbia. Situated on a generous half-acre lot outside the city limits, this property offers no HOA along with the rare ability to have chickens, giving you more freedom to truly enjoy your space.

Inside, the 1,688 square feet feature a flexible layout with multiple living areas including a main living room, formal living room, and a bright sunroom filled with natural light. Several rooms have been freshly painted, adding a refreshed feel while still leaving plenty of opportunity to personalize the home over time.

Original hardwood floors have timeless character, and the seller is willing to provide a credit toward refinishing them, allowing buyers to customize the finish to their taste. Outside, the fully fenced backyard provides plenty of room for gardening, entertaining, animals, or simply enjoying the outdoors.

The trampoline and fort can remain, and the existing chicken setup may stay or be removed depending on buyer preference. A covered carport, additional driveway parking, attached utility room, and spacious workshop provide excellent functionality for hobbies, storage, or projects.

Recent updates include new air ducts installed in 2024 along with a newer dishwasher. Zoned for Brennen Elementary, Crayton Middle, and A.C. Flora High School. With a versatile floor plan, large lot, and convenient location close to shopping, dining, and commuting routes, this property offers a great opportunity to create a home that fits your lifestyle.
