New Construction
It is not often you find new construction under $150K, and this one is almost done. The builder is finishing a 2-bedroom, 2-bath house at 185 Hardin Rd in Savannah, Tennessee, and it should be ready within the month.
The footprint is small. 999 square feet is a tight number, and you should go in knowing that. Two bedrooms, two full baths, a dedicated laundry room. The floor plan is built around 9-foot ceilings, which do make a small space feel less compressed. LVP runs throughout, so there is no carpet to worry about, which on a new build is a reasonable call for durability.
The brick exterior is the thing that holds up over time. A lot of builders at this price point go with vinyl siding and call it a day. Brick costs more upfront and asks less of you later. On a house this size, it reads clean and solid.
Out back there is a large covered porch. The listing calls it out specifically, and on a 999-square-foot house, the outdoor space matters more than it would on something bigger. A covered porch in Tennessee extends the livable year for a good stretch of it.
The agent description does not mention a garage or carport, so there may be none. It says nothing about lot size either, so that is unclear. The interior details are thin beyond the ceiling height, flooring, and laundry room. At this price and square footage, you are not getting a long list of upgrades, but what is here sounds straightforward and new.
For someone buying at this price point, new construction means no deferred maintenance, no surprises behind the walls, and a builder warranty on the work. That is worth something. The house is small, the price is real, and it will be finished soon.
