1857 – Pine Mountain, GA

159 Trammell Rd, Pine Mountain, GA 31822

Weekend/summer hideaway - located 5 miles from Callaway Gardens and 4 miles from downtown Pine Mountain shopping. This historical home was built before the civil war. Standing strong through the years, has old fashioned 'rolling hardwood floors' like grandma had....now she's ready for a new owner to 'fix her up;' you can enjoy country living with low Meriwether county taxes and a Pine Mountain address! Deep fresh water well with brand new pump and clean sweet sulphur springs water; so no water bills! Under market value due to death in the family. Won't last long. First $40,000 takes her and 1.01 acres. Financing available with down payment and good credit.
