Huge price reduction! Located on the corner of High Street and Rio Street, this charming residence sits on large double lot (one-half acre). Adjacent lots are already zoned commercial, so this property has incredible potential for future development. The vacant lot offers great investment potential. High Street is one of the major corridors into downtown Jackson for both workers and visitors, and the great visibility and high traffic count of this large parcel opens it up to many potential commercial uses, as well as the fact that is already zoned R-4 (multi-family). The charming home now occupying half of the lot has been lovingly maintained by its long-time owner. This 2 bedroom/2 bath home has a screened front porch, a living room, dining room, kitchen, back family room, and a walk-in laundry room. The private backyard is fenced and has a deck; there is also a detached garage. New roof just installed last year! A short stroll across High Street takes you straight to the Mississippi Farmer's Market where you can purchase fresh produce, meat, poultry, and dairy products, plus delicious home-baked goods. This property is situated within steps of the Museum Trail and Belhaven Mountain Bike Trails. The location is ideal for anyone who works downtown or at the State capital, or any of the nearby hospitals. Don't miss out on the chance to make this unique property your very own!
