From the Zillow listing:

Discover a gem in downtown Murphy — a charming 2,500 sq. ft., 2-story fixer-upper with untapped potential. Step onto rustic floors that await a touch of love to restore their natural beauty, complemented by equally enchanting old wood walls. While the lower level of the property beckons some creative flair, it’s a straightforward revamp. Featuring 2 beds, 2 baths, a living area, and a kitchen, the space is undoubtedly livable but holds potential with some remodeling. Journey upstairs to a partially remodeled haven, barring some trim work. This space teases your imagination with 2 additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and its own kitchen – an opportunity for passive rental income or a guest suite – plus a cutting-edge mini-split system to ensure you stay comfortable year-round. Outside, shield your vehicle with a 1-vehicle carport. Located on a tranquil street, you’re just steps away from the heartbeat of downtown Murphy. Imagine rejuvenated family walks to school, visits to the city library, or delightful evenings reveling in local dining and the iconic Murphy River Walk. 130 Springdale St. is more than a property; it’s an invitation to craft your dream and cultivate a lifestyle. Whether you’re an investor eyeing rental income or a large family seeking a tranquil haven close to the heart of the city, this is where dreams meet reality.
