From the Zillow listing:

 

A rare opportunity is knocking in Kingsport’s sought after historic White City neighborhood. Named after the famed white painted homes by renowned architect of the era. A 1920s classic filled with its original character featuring original hardwood floors throughout, sweeping ceilings and staircases, and plenty of walk-in closets—an unexpected bonus for a home of this era. The kitchen maintains its vintage appeal with retro cabinetry and a spacious walk-in pantry. The detached garage building is shared- the workshop section conveys, the neighbor owns the garage space. 706 Yadkin St needs modern updates and your creative vision within the historic guidelines. It holds incredible potential for the right buyer to restore its beauty and is priced for a quick AS-IS sale. Located in the cul de sac past sidewalk-lined streets and a location just minutes from downtown Kingsport, shopping, major roads, medical care, and schools.
