**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).

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.
