 and welcome once again to another edition of the Red Brown and Williams real estate show. I'm Shannon Deskins along with Jennifer Brown Day and Jennifer I guess with everything blooming and color starting to come back into things we were talking off camera just a minute ago about it being a good time for people to list their homes. Absolutely and it's a popular time for people to list their homes. Everybody wants to put their homes on when spring is coming you can get the good pictures for the MLS websites and the ads so it's the perfect time to go ahead and start doing that. Well and that's that time before the yard start getting grown and everything's pretty I guess if I had to think in my mind what the good time for curb appeal would be it would have to be spring. Yes yes it is well you've got all the flowers you've got you know this area is so pretty spring and fall and you you always have a pretty summer because everything still bloomed but those two times are just great for curb appeal and pictures and that kind of stuff for any of the listings. Alright if someone is wanting to list their home just real quick you guys have four locations throughout East Kentucky. We do we have a location here in Pike Field and then of course we have one in Pressensburg our main office which is out of Paintsfield and then we have an office in Louisa. Okay now those four locations are going to be good if you want to list or if you're interested in buying something they already have listed and we're going to show you five of those today. Alright the first one all these are going to be your listings today so let's start on the north side of Pike County. Okay let's do it the first one we've got is off Redbird Lane in Pike Field and for people who aren't familiar with where that is that's on the Pike Floyd County line towards Hurricane. So that's basically a lot of people know that as the Boldman Bridge so right at the Pike Floyd County line and this one is not far once you cross the bridge it's right there. It is it's as you cross the bridge you're looking almost right at it and this is one it was built in 1995 but since then has been completely renovated so it's essentially a new house on the inside if you want to be honest about it. It's got a new custom kitchen it's it's just one that you could walk in and move in. You know I love that you talking about the custom kitchen they've done some tile work and then on the outside you've got this big yard space I mean it's on an acre of property which you don't find very often. You don't especially an acre that's all flat and that's what this is so you have if you want an additional parking space which you have a nice large driveway that leads up to your two-car garage but if you want an additional parking if you want to do an additional garage if you want to fence in the yard and have play space if anything you'd want to do you've got the space to do it. And then on the inside three bedrooms two bathrooms you know almost 1500 square feet this is a nice size home. It is in that 1500 square feet the great thing about this house that is above grade living. You actually have a family room and utility room below grade because it's a split level house so it's not all the way a basement but it is below grade living space that's completely finished and that adds another 800 square feet onto this so you're talking total almost 2300 square feet of living space. Yeah this is one that I'll bet you pictures just aren't gonna do it justice. No it doesn't it's one that I really recommend people see if this is the price range in the area they want to be in. And that price is 269.5 so this is your listing let's throw your email address out there and we'll go between email and phone through the show. Okay the email is Jay Brown at rbnw.com. All right and when you do give Jennifer a call or an email 106198 is the number for that particular listing. Okay now staying in Pike County we'll move to the next one in the Coal Run community and this one's on Toley Lane. Toley Lane and we have actually talked about this one before but this is one that I love showing on here because it's such a fun house and it's one that I think the pictures just it make it they make it look so amazing and it truly is. Well the big thing that catches me is the yard space and then you look at when you get when you get this house you're gonna get three and a half acres and a big part of that is flat and I know we've mentioned before you don't find that very often right here outside of Pikeville. Right you do have a lot of usable yard space with this house and if anything if you don't need the extra yard it just gives you that feeling of privacy and I always kind of talk about this one as being the mountain retreat because it's a log house and you can see in the picture kind of picturesque sitting back in there and that land around you it just gives you that feeling of having that privacy you know surrounding you and one thing that we haven't mentioned is this is right off of US 23 in Coal Run so and you can't tell that by looking at these pictures and that's one of the great things about this house is you've got the convenience right there US 23 to Pikeville to Coal Run but yet you feel like you are miles outside the city. Exactly and you are right off 23 but you are just at the point where you can't see 23 so it's the perfect distance for convenience like you said and then this one just has tons of square footage a lot of space to use you've got again this one has above and below grade space so you've got almost 3800 square feet above grade which includes four bedrooms and then below grade you have another almost 1250 square feet that's all finished with a family room and office a kitchen and you've got a full bath down there so you have you're pushing 5000 square feet really are finished living space yes exactly what four bedrooms and then you've got three full baths and two half baths correct so tons of bathroom space that just speaks large family to me yes no arguing over these bathrooms in this house absolutely and again it just has a lot of rooms to do with whatever you've got a loft that you could make an office a workout room a playroom you know you just have a lot of a lot of space to do what you'd want to do so if you do go see this house and Jennifer takes you make sure you bring a notepad because they're gonna take a lot of notes on what you want to do with this space absolutely I hope so okay now this one 549 9 is what it's listed for so if that's the market that you're in Jennifer definitely this is one they need to see absolutely I highly recommend setting up a showing if this is this is what you're looking for okay give us that number to the pipe for law okay 606 437 2333 all right 105 994 is that listing for the home on Tolly Lane all right now let's move out on the other side of Pikeville to 5 for now this one's on Chloe Road but still in the city limits yes this one is right kind of on the edge of going out of the city limits but you're still in so you've got all the city amenities but you do have a sense of privacy this one has some land with it you've got a little less than an acre but you feel like you're sitting up there kind of by yourself so this is a great property for somebody who likes the city living without having to live in the city and just like the house that we just talked about this one's you've got a big stone fireplace and I love that because it's a two-story living room which gives you that feeling of like that big loft lodge type feel as well exactly and this one has the wood detailing and trim you've got the wood beams in the living room like you said the stone fireplace and then this one the great thing that people love about this house directly over the garage is a huge open recreation space you can see in the picture that it's got a pool table in it and this is you see pool tables in this area and sometimes they don't exactly fit the rooms are put in you know you can kind of damage the walls and this is one where the pool table actually fits like you have plenty of room for that kind of stuff yeah but in the main area you know you've got three bedrooms two and a half bathrooms over 2,500 square feet so another nice size home absolutely it's a really nice size house and like I said you do have some yard space it comes with an above ground pool a private deck you have a private driveway so you really have a lot with this house and this one was just reduced so we want to make sure and highlight that price all right and it was reduced to $194.9 so you're getting all that under $200,000 so not a bad price not at all let's throw your email address out there again okay the emails jbrown at rbnw.com okay 106087 for that home that we just talked about on 5-4 which is in Pikeville now going south on us 23 after you get out of the Pikeville city limits the next listings on collie heels that's correct collie heels this one's at rachel court which is when you go up to the top of collie heels you kind of stay straight so it's it's you don't really turn right or left when you get out there you stay straight this house will come up on your left this is a ranch house which most of them up there are but this is one of the more open layouts that I've seen up there it's a very open concept your living room dining room kitchen are all very open so if you're a fan of entertaining this is a great house entertaining you know bringing the large families over for I mean we just had Easter dinner not too long ago I'm sure this would have been a great house for that so looking forward to Thanksgiving's and Christmas's this is a home that's perfect for those family gatherings absolutely and it's been that kitchen that we were just talking about has been updated they've done some new countertops in there and new light fixtures and then they did a really pretty a little bit more contemporary tile in the kitchen and in the bathrooms fairly recently and then on the outside I see that it's got a fenced in yard and that's popular for anyone with families or pets that you you don't have to worry about if you've got that pet that likes to get out and run about okay where are we gonna fence in the yard where can we put the dog run this is already there absolutely and the way that this lot is situated you actually have a pretty private lot I mean you're up there in a subdivision but you really don't have anybody on one side of you so you really have a very semi-private lot location and it's so convenient to Piefield because you're only minutes outside of the Pikeville City limits so if you're you know you like to travel anywhere south you know that's convenient to do that also but yet you're right outside of Python yes exactly it's a great location all right so give you a call on this one absolutely yeah they can call the Pockville office that number 606-437-2333 the price on this one one hundred eighty two thousand dollars so not bad for everything you're getting right there in Collie Hills absolutely okay now we're moving along quickly today their last listing today is out kind of in the county a little bit but a lot of people like that seclusion and this one's on Indian Creek this one's on the Indian Creek and this is one I actually love talking about this house we get a lot of calls on this house because of the location and because of the price so it's in one of those price ranges that tends to get a lot of attention but this is an older house the thing with this one is it's not an older house that you're gonna have to come in and spend thousands and thousands of dollars unless you just want to to personalize it right this is one that's got the older house charm but it's really been kept up and updated and it's ready for somebody to move in I mean looking at the pictures you can tell that with the trim with the cabinets in the kitchen it looks like a modern paint scheme so somebody has really taken the time to update it and then keep it that way absolutely absolutely and it's got about 1300 square feet it's got some newer flooring new light fixtures new heat pump in a new full bathroom this one is also one that's convenient to Pikeville right outside of Pikeville a lot of people who live in the city and go through the hustle and bustle and traffic love that escape at the end of the day to be able to say I'm gonna go home yeah I'm gonna get out of the city yes and this is one you know there's all kinds of grocery store access over there you've got the new elementary school that direction you have everything that you need very very close so this is one if you like having a little elbow room this is the perfect place to go and then one thing you talked about is even though you know you're looking at 13 right at 1300 square feet the layout is very good for that size house it really is this is a really the rooms are nice size you actually have a bedroom with a walk-in closet that can double as an office which you don't see a whole lot in 1300 square foot houses so you can tell it's a very nice layout and then you've got three bedrooms so great for a family or like you said someone who works at home wants that home
