HARD TO FIND: REMODELED 3 BED, 2 BATH BRICK RANCH HOME WITH 2-CAR ATTACHED GARAGE ON 3 ACRES AT EDGE OF TOWN. PROPERTIES LIKE THIS ARE DISAPPEARING ACROSS THE NATION. Move to an idyllic old southern town, far away from crowds, but near enough to find everything you'll ever need. Columbia, Mississippi is just such a town. Columbia is located about 20 miles west of Hattiesburg. First, here are some facts that could be a major deal maker for you. 1) Property tax is $48.30. That's PER YEAR not PER MONTH (homesteaded). The regular non-homesteaded under 65 property tax is about $85 per month, still attractive. 2) Water comes from a giant aquifer some 1600 feet below the property. It's great. Cost runs $20-22/mo. Only about 350 customers total served by our water company. 3) Trash pickup (weekly) costs $15/mo and paid every third month. 4) Heat and air are electric from a heat pump. This works well in southern Mississippi, where winters are very short and quite mild. 5) Home financing: this is a major plus. A USDA home loan qualifies here. Zero dollars down with a 30-yr term. WOW! OK, now let's talk about the property. 1) This home is a 1550 sq ft ranch split design, with two separate bedroom suites having attached full bathrooms. Perfect for a retired couple with elderly parent/parents. Everyone has their own end of the house. 2) The third bedroom, if not needed, could be a great office location. All kinds of possibilities here. 3) Giant white granite-countered kitchen with huge island and all new appliances. 4) New washer and dryer. 5) The house has a new 30-yr roof. 6) Attached 2-car garage. 7) John Deere 42 in, 17.5 HP riding lawn mower with only 45 hours of use. Cut grass in one easy hour. 8) Large screened back porch over-looking wilderness area. Enjoy the deer. 9) Home is all brick with aluminum/vinyl over hangs, all around. Will never have to paint. Garage and porch floors stained. Makes cleaning a breeze.
