Property Description

This bungalow in the heart of San Souci features an expansive front porch, refinished original hardwood floors, glass doorknobs, historic fireplaces and doors, and tall ceilings. While many of the original details remain, the home also has a renovated kitchen and bathroom, newer vinyl windows, new appliances, a new deck, and updated fixtures throughout. The architectural shingle roof is less than 10 years old, and the vinyl was also recently updated. Located on a corner lot, the deep backyard is mostly fenced, and while surrounded by trees, offers a grassy expanse for play, room for the aspiring gardener or even space for constructing a garage. The fenced in front yard offers dappled shade from both a river birch and weeping specimen tree. The unfinished basement/crawlspace has just enough headroom to store garden and lawn equipment. This prime location in San Souci is just a short walk to the Swamp Rabbit Trail, Greenville Yoga, Velo Valet, the Daydrinkers coffeeshop, and multiple art studios, on a tree-lined street with sidewalks. It is also a 10 min drive to downtown Greenville and Travelers Rest and Paris Mountain! Historic San Souci, whose name is French for "Without Cares," features diverse architecture, mature trees, and a strong community spirit. The San Souci Neighborhood Alliance is the active neighborhood nonprofit that helps organize the community garden located, a garden concert series (sponsored by Give GVL Homes!) outdoor movies and art events, as well as neighborhood beautification. The redevelopment of the 240-acre Union Bleachery Mill site a mile away into a mixed use development with restaurants and entertainment, as well as a Swamp Rabbit spur that may extend as far as Paris Mountain, promises further revitalization and growth. Listing photos include virtually staging, and while a gas line is present, would more than likely need ventless gas logs in order to be functional.
