It's not every day you find a flip where the new owners turned around & poured another $86,000 into upgrades, & it shows the moment you walk in. Since purchasing the home from the flip company in 2021, the sellers have invested heavily in both functionality & aesthetics. They installed a new roof ('21, $8,500), then added black 6-inch gutters ('25, $3,000). Warm cedar-shake-style siding instantly lifts the curb appeal ('25, $2,900). The front porch ('22, $14,000) & back porch roof ('23, $2,000) were rebuilt from the ground up to feel solid under your feet, while the driveway ('21-'25, $500) was patched & sealed. They also replaced 16 windows (11 in '21 and 5 in '22, $22,000), added a storm & screen door ('21/'22, $700), & installed a custom basement door ('21, $300). Inside, the sellers upgraded bathroom fixtures ('21, $1,400), installed a new HVAC system ('21, $15,000) with smart-thermostat capability, & replaced the flooring with $10,000 of LVP in 2023. Kitchen improvements include a Samsung refrigerator ('21), dishwasher ('21), new range/oven ('25), & water line upgrades. Additional improvements include rebuilt soffits & fascia, updated smoke/CO detectors, corrected laundry hookups, refreshed landscaping, a rebuilt carport/garage structure, a new backyard fence ('22-'23, $500), & a transferable American Home Shield warranty ('25, $700). All these upgrades mean you get the charm of 1918 with the reliability of 2025, without lifting a finger. If you've been waiting for a truly move-in-ready bungalow where the expensive projects are already done, this is the one that finally checks every box. The home immediately gives you that warm, lived-in charm that historic bungalows nail, but with the kind of flow & finish you'd expect from a modern magazine spread. The front-facing living room welcomes you with natural light from the new windows & leads seamlessly into a dedicated dining room, creating a true heart-of-the-home gathering space. From there, the kitchen opens up with updated appliances, clean lines, & an easy, everyday functionality. Tucked just beyond is the half bath & a smartly designed laundry closet, before the home expands into a stunning den anchored by a decorative white-brick fireplace that looks like it fell right out of Magnolia Magazine, warm, intentional, & effortlessly cozy. Upstairs, all three bedrooms sit in their own quiet corner of the home, each filled with the same natural light & charm that make these early-1900s Pottery Homes so loved. The hallway bath serves the floor with updated fixtures & a classic feel, giving the entire second level a sense of calm & privacy. Outside, you'll find two covered parking spaces plus an additional garage bay that can flex as a workshop, home gym, studio space, gear room, or anything your lifestyle demands. Every level of this home brings its own personality. Practical on paper, stunning in person, & designed for the way people actually live today, the setting of this charming town makes it even better. Erwin continues to earn regional recognition, highlighted by Southern Living as one of Tennessee's standout mountain communities, officially designated by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy as an A.T. ''Trail Community,'' & celebrated in regional publications as one of the Blue Ridge's true hidden-gem towns for its scenery, trail access, & small-town charm. Erwin is 18 min from Downtown Johnson City & 49 min from Asheville. 639 Ohio Ave is also one of Erwin's beloved Pottery Homes, a small, historic cluster built in the early 1900s for Clinchfield Pottery workers. These cottages are known for their character, walkability, & deep roots in Erwin's story. Very few have been updated to this level, & even fewer come to market. This is your chance to own a piece of Erwin's history without sacrificing modern comfort. All info is provided as a courtesy & is believed to be accurate, though not guaranteed.
