Unique opportunities like this rarely come to market in desirable Old South, especially those offering flexible living options, income potential to help offset mortgage costs, and the chance to add tremendous value.

A distinctive scalloped slate roof adds character and curb appeal, while the detached single-car garage/workshop provides added flexibility and peace of mind.
