About this home

Opportunity, character, and more than a century of history come together at 17 Church Street in the heart of Cartersville. This 100+ year-old home is ready for its next chapter and offers an incredible opportunity for a buyer with vision to restore, renovate, and reimagine a property that simply cannot be recreated today. This is a true fixer-upper and is being sold AS-IS, but look beyond what it needs and you'll quickly see what it could become. From its historic architecture and original character to its charming setting, this home provides the foundation for a special transformation. Whether your vision includes a full-time residence, weekend river retreat, investment property, or memorable short-term rental, there is plenty of room here to dream. One of the property's most exciting features is its proximity to the James River. Located just across the street from river access and a boat slip, days spent boating, fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying life along the river could become part of the experience. Inside, you'll find the charm and quirks that come with a home that has stood for generations, along with spaces ready for a new owner to breathe fresh life into them. This is an opportunity to preserve its story while introducing the comforts and finishes of today. For renovators, investors, old-house enthusiasts, or anyone who has dreamed of taking a historic property and making it completely their own, 17 Church Street is a rare blank canvas. Bring your contractor. Bring your ideas. Most importantly, bring your imagination. The work is real-but so is the potential. With the James River practically at your doorstep and more than 100 years of character already in place, this could become one of those homes people remember. Property is being sold AS-IS. Buyers should perform their own due diligence regarding property condition, intended use, improvements, river/boat access, and applicable requirements.
