 Hello everyone and welcome once again to another edition of the Red Brun and Williams Real Estate Show. I'm Shannon Deskins with Jennifer Brown Day and Jennifer we finally got to that point of the year when the temperatures are starting to turn a little cooler but that means the leaves are going to start changing and falling and I know you as a realtor give people tips about things they needed to watch out with their homes. What about fall? Absolutely. Fall is when like you said the leaves have started falling. The worst thing that happens when the leaves fall gutters get clogged. That's the common thing so this is the time you just want to make sure keep your roof cleaned off, keep your gutters cleaned out, make sure if there is a heavy rain that you don't have any backup or anything like that and then of course you know with your curb appeal if your house is listed or you plan on listing it just make sure and keep those leaves out of the way, keep everything clean and nice. It's not going to be as pretty as spring and summer but you can definitely still keep it looking clean and nice for anybody driving by or looking at the house. And if you have your home listed that's just that little bit of work could pay off in the end with a quicker offer. Absolutely. Absolutely. Okay talking about curb appeal let's talk about five listings that have some really good curb appeal that people would definitely want to take a look at these homes. The first one right here in Pike County on Lower Johns Creek. It is. This is one that's on Pinson Branch. If you're familiar where the mouth of Joe's Creek comes out on Lower Johns Creek, Pinson Branch almost sits directly across from that. So it's pretty easy to find if you're looking in that area. This house is not far at Pinson Branch at all, only about a tenth of a mile sits on your right and this is one that has so much space it's very deceiving by the pictures. In this area I know that you know this but it's very popular, it's not in common to drive down Lower Johns Creek and see elk and to see deer and everything else it's an area that's very a little different terrain than some of Pike County you've got some flat areas. Right and a lot of wildlife. Now you're talking about spacious I mean you're looking at 25 almost 2,500 square feet and that's not including nearly 2,000 square feet of basement space. Exactly. This is a it's a three bedroom two and a half bath all the bedrooms and usable spaces upstairs for the most part. You do have a family room in the basement with a fireplace that's great for a teenager hangout or if you needed like a mother-in-law suite or something along those lines it does have an exterior entrance also. You've got a great front porch to sit out on and just enjoy these evenings and then you've got a sunroom on the backside of the house also. Exactly and the owners when they did the front porch they actually told me when we did the listing they did it for a second living room. So that front porch is set up it's got tile floor it's got the curtains that can come down and do complete privacy it really is a separate living area. If it's something that's picking your interest especially when we tell you it's under $170,000 to give you a call to get that showing scheduled. Absolutely and this is one that they've also done a lot of renovations on so it's not one that you're going to have to go in and throw a new roof on they've already done a lot of that work. Right you've got hardwood and tile for your flooring and just a lot of extras it's got a fireplace. So definitely give Jennifer a call if you're interested in this one 167.5 for this home on Pinson Branch and that MLS number is 107628. Now this is your listing so let's give that Python number. Okay you can call us at 606-437-2333. Okay now moving along to our second listing now this one is just outside the city limits of Pikeville and by just outside literally probably by feet. This one is right off Rattles Creek Road and like we were talking about before the show you're honestly about halfway down Rattles Creek depending on whichever way you're coming. So if you come from Town Mound or if you come from US-23 you're going to be about halfway down Rattles Creek and a very large home at 2700 square feet four bedrooms two and a half bathrooms and the master bedroom is easily one of those bedrooms that you can do a king bed plus all the king furniture and still have plenty of comfortable room it's a very nice size master bedroom has a private bathroom off of it so this is one that it would be a great family home or a home where you needed the extra space this is great. And then on the outside I mean you're looking at this home is sitting on two acres of property you don't find that very often this close to the city limits of Pikeville. You don't and a surprisingly large amount of it is usable you have a very nice size yard so this is one the rest of it kind of gives you some privacy behind it but you do have a lot of usable yard space. Right and then looking at the at the front side of it I love how you describe that front porch you call it the Romeo and Juliet porch that's what it reminded me of I'm not sure that's the technical name but yes on the kind of front side of the house there's a Romeo and Juliet porch it's kind of a second floor balcony porch very pretty and that actually overlooks all the yard. Wow well this one is a great home with a great location as far as accessibility to Pikeville two different ways either come in from Town Mountain Road or from US 23 so 285,000 is the price on this one the Add Ralph's Creek Road so you can drive straight up through there and see it from the main road so if it's something you're interested in give Jennifer a call or they can email you. Absolutely the email is jbrown at rbnw.com All right when you email her reference 107595 that is the mls number that will bring that house right up and get your showing schedule. Now moving on to one that has just been reduced this is one that's going to get some attention today. Absolutely this is one that like you said it's been reduced and so we've talked about it before this is off right Fork of Island Creek it's a little less than a mile up right Fork of Island Creek again very close to the city limits you're kind of a stone throw away from being in the city of Pikeville it's an older cottage but they have completely renovated it so you have all the older charm with all the new updates. I think just referring to it as a cottage just sounds warm and cozy and then when you look at the pictures I mean it is I mean it just is one of those it reminds me of winter time with the fire going in the fireplace that kind of home and then when you look at all the updates that they've done to it it's like you can move right into it and not have to do anything. Absolutely this is one when they redid the kitchen they put in a black granite countertops with the white kitchen cabinets which is a very popular look right now very bright and airy it's got its own private dining area and then they've done a lot of updates with new windows new vinyl siding new flooring new metal roof new heating and cooling so all those major systems have been taken care of. And then it's sitting on two and a half acres of property I mean you've got room for a garden you've got room for a pool fence in the yard for the children of the pets you've got room on the outside to do whatever you want with. Exactly and this is another one that the two and a half acres is actually mostly usable property so you can have lots of parking if you're somebody who has people in and out you can you know like you said a swing set or anything that you'd want to put on there you've got plenty of room. And Wright Fork of Island Creek is accessible to Pikeville so you're you're within a less than a 10 minute drive maybe six seven minute drive but yet you are out in the country so you're getting the best of both worlds accessibility to shopping and business and everything else that Pikeville has to offer but you don't have to deal with the traffic and stuff all the time you can escape to it every evening. Exactly, exactly and this house really is an escape it's one that you can kind of go in and you just breathe a little easier when you walk in the front door. And this is one that is definitely priced to sell and when we say that people are already saying okay how can I get a hold of somebody to go ahead and look at this house so let's give that Pikeville office number. Okay that number 606-437-2333 and feel free to ask for any of our agents there. Okay. All right this next listing that we're going to talk about are actually the last two that we're going to have are practically in downtown Pikeville. Now this one a lot of people know when we say fields away they know that we're talking about townhomes but this isn't it isn't. It's one of the front street on Louise Lane and these are single story a little bit more of a patio home style and there's only two connected so they're not you know a big long line of townhouses or anything like that which means this is an end unit and this is on the end unit where you actually have yard space you've got privacy you've got the ability to do additional parking to do a fenced yard do a garden. So this is almost like you know a home you're looking at a home but your upkeep and your maintenance is going to be a lot less. Exactly and this one has HOA fees which a lot of people are going to be familiar with if you're going into a restricted area and the HOA fees actually take care of some of that yard maintenance and the snow removal and the roads that way again you don't have all that extra so if you've got a super busy career if you've got kids that require a lot of time or something like that this is a great house that you don't have to worry about as much and I'm thinking a lot of someone who is just retired and they're wanting to do a lot of traveling or they want to spend their winters in a warmer place all of a sudden you can go I'm going to sell the house I'm in and I'm going to reduce all of my maintenance to where I'm free to do all the things I want to do. Exactly this house has tons of closets the garage has tons of closets the attic space is shelved with closets so this is one that you also you know if you are an older couple that are retired you don't have to get rid of everything that you had to downsize or anything like that. The interesting thing about this one is when we listed it the dining room actually had a dining table in it that comfortably sat eight to ten people so there's not a whole lot of townhouses you're going to be able to get that size of table in comfortably. Right so just remember this is a patio style home you're going to get get townhouse living but you don't have any stairs you can walk up and down everything is on one level and you're right off basically right off Hambly Boulevard the price on this one 295,106838 is that MLS number and they can call you or any of your agents in the Pikeville office. Correct correct that number again if you want to call 606-437-2333. All right now just going down the street just a little bit is another home that's right on the hill in Pikeville off Mount Martha Drive. Correct and this is one that again we have talked about before but they just reduced the price on it which is why I wanted to bring it again and talk about it it's an older home still has that older home charm original hardwood floors original trim throughout the house right under 1500 square feet kind of a cape cod style that sits right off Mount Martha if you have anything to do with downtown this is a great location. It is and then you're seeing that it is an older home and it is cute by looking at the pictures but then when you can say it still has the original hardwood that brings in the history and the charm of you know what Pikeville used to be and so much history in that area actually for any Hatfield McCoy history buffs I mean you've got the cemetery close by that that's got the pericline grave and that gets a lot of tourists to come into this area and to think that you can live that close to so much history I mean that's worth what this home is worth you know to a lot of people. Absolutely the great thing about this one that a lot of the Cape Cod style houses it does have the three bedrooms one bath it also has kind of an office den space that you don't usually have a whole lot of extra space in a Cape Cod style home so this one actually has that additional space which is great if you want to work from home if you want to have a playroom for the kids anything like that. I mean it seems like the key to this show has been storage yeah every every listing that we've talked about has just had some great storage and this one is no exception yeah and in addition it also has an unfinished basement like you said but off of that you've got a fenced backyard if you're familiar with Pikeville a fenced backyard on the hill is a big deal. Now I am sure that we have your interest peaked with all the history that we've talked about this home and everything it has to offer now we're going to tell you the price $129,000 so if you are already interested I'm sure that price Jennifer just moved it to the top of a lot of people's lists. I hope so that's a great price for downtown Pikeville. Right 106689 is that email list number now we've given the Pikeville office phone number a few times let's give your email one more time.
