About this home
**AUCTION EXTENDED THROUGH FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9 — AND THE SELLER IS ALSO ACCEPTING TRADITIONAL WRITTEN OFFERS!** The auction has been extended due to give buyers additional time to complete their due diligence and review updated auction terms: financing contingencies now accepted with pre-approval letter! BUY-IT-NOW Bid Pricing also available on auction website. Traditional written offers may be submitted at any time — contact the listing agent for offer guidance. Built in 2023, this incredibly spacious home in The Plains is being offered through online auction with a $350,000 starting bid (next bid is $357,500 as of 10/1). This is not a foreclosure or distressed property — the auction is simply a fresh approach to getting the home sold, with a very attainable reserve set well below the appraised value. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch offers close to 2,100 square feet of true one-level living with 10' ceilings, an open floor plan, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and a flexible layout with a separate suite and private exterior entrance. The oversized 3-car garage adds approximately 1,100 square feet and is ideal for vehicles, hobbies, a workshop, gym, or storage. Additional features include 400-amp electric service, mini-split heating and cooling, a paved driveway with two ingress/egress options, and 1.82 acres in a convenient countryside setting near Routes 17, 29, and I-66. Many documents available: Well, Septic, Title Search, ROW to Rte. 17, Comps, Appraisal, etc. If you’ve never purchased through an auction before, don’t let that stop you — the process is much simpler than you may think. Tour the home, review the terms, register online for free, and bid from anywhere. Registration does not obligate you to bid. Online bidding closes Friday, October 9 at 7:00 PM. Register now at Thornton River HiBid. Traditional written offers are also welcome....
