Sitting less than five minutes from the App State campus and downtown Boone, and just two minutes from Kidd Brewer stadium, this property offers a rare combination of convenience and opportunity at an accessible price point. This 1970 split-level home sits at the end of a short, shared driveway on a wooded 0.37-acre lot that provides a natural buffer from neighbors. Whether you are looking for a highly desirable student investment property or a solid starter home where you can build sweat equity, the location alone makes this a standout option. Inside, you enter a spacious living room anchored by a cozy woodstove fireplace and large picture windows that overlook a small grassy lawn, ideal for a firepit & outdoor dining set. The main level also features a separate den or dining area and a tidy, functional kitchen. Upstairs, the layout includes three bedrooms and two full baths. While plenty of opportunities remain to make this home your own, the big-ticket items have already been handled for you. The seller invested in a new roof and a new heat pump in 2025, and recent luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the home. For added convenience, the property is connected to city water, sewer, and trash collection. The lower level is a major bonus, featuring an oversized one-car garage with over 800 square feet of space perfect for a workshop, gear storage, or a fitness area. This space includes a separate laundry and utility room, and an extra refrigerator that conveys with the sale. The property is being sold as-is. Buyers should note that a buried fuel tank on-site was properly decommissioned and filled with sand circa 2005, and a damaged sewer line was replaced at front of garage in June 2026 (all proper permits were pulled). Additionally, the seller reports water seepage under the garage door during heavy rains– it’s possible that the solution may be as simple as replacing the bottom weather stripping. If you want to be close to everything Boone has to offer, schedule a showing before this one is gone.
