Brand new Trane heat pump just installed. Less than $100 sq ft on this larger manufactured home in Greenhill community. Convenient location between Rutherfordton and Lake Lure. This tucked away home offers a large deck with handicapped access ramp. Spacious rooms with open flow kitchen, den, living areas. Huge kitchen, woodburning fireplace. This property has a nice lot with cleared space in front for gardening, play equipment, while offering private, wooded boundaries in back and street side. This home is priced with condition considered The home will need a new roof very soon and there are small soft spots near sink in kitchen and ensuite bathroom. The home needs new flooring. This is a manufactured home with piers and tie downs, but skirting and no solid foundation making it more difficult to finance. I have spoken with several lenders who will finance on a conventional loan with piers and tie downs. Condition may be an obstacle.
