The kitchen includes wood cabinetry, ample counter space, and a practical layout, while the covered front porch and rear deck extend the space outdoors. The fenced secondary lot adds flexibility for gardening, recreation, pets, or other permitted uses, and a block storage building provides a practical place for tools, lawn equipment, and seasonal items. This 3-bedroom home in Waynesville does need additional work, but it offers a starting point for a buyer who wants to personalize a property in a convenient Waynesville location. The home is on a slab foundation and has baseboard heaters. Important square footage disclosure: the home contains approximately 864 square feet of interior space, but because the ceiling height is under 7 feet throughout, the square footage does not qualify as heated living area for MLS reporting. The property is therefore reported with 0 heated square feet and 864 additional square feet, despite the presence of baseboard heat. The property is also located within the 100-year floodplain. With the additional fenced lot, storage building, fresh interior updates, end-of-road setting, and proximity to downtown Waynesville, restaurants, shopping, and everyday services, 52 Clay Street offers an appealing combination of location, outdoor space, and improvement potential.
