About 23 Buist Avenue
For the first time in 76 years, 23 Buist Ave is available — owned and lovingly maintained by the same family and their descendants for over seven decades. Set on a rare 0.82-acre lot in the heart of North Main, one of Greenville's most sought-after in-town neighborhoods, this property offers space, privacy, and future potential that's increasingly hard to find this close to downtown. Per the seller, the lot can be sub-divided, opening the door for future development or added investment value. A long, paved circular driveway leads to the home, framed by a mature, beautifully kept yard. Inside, a spacious foyer opens to a large living room on one side and flows into a generous dining room connected to an updated, open-concept kitchen — ideal for hosting family and guests. The adjacent family room features a fireplace and opens toward the bedroom wing. The owner also enlarged the deck and rebuilt it with low-maintenance composite decking, creating an ideal spot to relax or entertain while overlooking the well-maintained rear yard. The primary suite includes two walk-in closets and a spa-style bath with a jetted tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms are also roomy with walk-in closets — one with its own ensuite bath — plus a convenient hall bath serving the third bedroom and guests. A permanent staircase leads to an unfinished attic offering nearly 1,000 sq ft of expansion potential, while the basement includes flexible bonus space suited for a rec room, additional bedroom, home office, or gym - already with its own under the counter refrigerator and microwave along with a separate garage/workshop/storage area. The home also has an attached two-car garage. All appliances and fireplaces convey as-is. Over the years, the current owner has made a number of updates and renovations, blending original character with modern livability.
