3848 Cave Spring Rd SW *This property sells at auction and price shown is just the county tax value and has no bearing on sale price. Thursday, October 1, 2026 at 2:04 pm - Auction Site: The Exchange - 232 Glenn Milner Blvd, Rome, GA Rome, Floyd County, GA Property located at 3824 and 3848 Cave Spring Rd SW 8.07+/- acres - (2) Homes Selling in Tracts or as a Whole Owner financing available The Estate of Robert B. Lively III Two well-built brick homes - +/-8.07 acres in all, with frontage on Cave Spring Road SW - come to auction together as the Estate of Robert B. Lively III, minutes from Rome in southwest Floyd County. It's a rare, flexible offering: a spacious brick home on nearly six acres, and a second home with a pool, a barn, and a finished basement suite - sold individually or together on one defined date. And it comes with something a cash listing can't match: owner financing available to qualified buyers. The Property - Two Tracts Tract 1 - 3824 Cave Spring Rd SW (5.95+/- acres): a 3, 030+/- sq ft brick ranch built in 1968 with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, plus a garage, carport, and outbuildings. Vacant and available for immediate possession - livable as-is, with room to update to your own taste, on nearly six acres. Tract 2 - 3848 Cave Spring Rd SW (2.12+/- acres): a 1, 878+/- sq ft brick home built in 1974 with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The house consists of a fully finished basement of roughly 1, 000+/- sq ft - its own kitchen, bedroom, great room, and full bath, a ready-made in-law suite, guest quarters, or rental space. Outside, it lives like a complete homestead, with an in-ground pool, a barn, a carport, and outbuildings. S-R zoning across both tracts. Owner Financing Available This is what sets the Lively estate apart. Owner financing is offered to qualified buyers on terms set by the seller - so buyers who prefer, or need, seller terms rather than a bank can compete right alongside cash. It's the rare chance to buy a brick home on acreage near Rome without the hurdles of conventional financing. Offered Your Way - Individually or Together Both tracts sell individually or together - and the property sells the way that brings the most. A family can bid on the home that fits, and a single buyer can bid the whole +/-8.07-acre package. On sale day, competition across the tracts sets the number, and the seller takes the best result. Location The estate fronts Cave Spring Road SW (U.S. Hwy 411) just minutes from Rome - the Floyd County seat and home to Berry College and Shorter University, with the area's regional medical centers, shopping, and dining close by. Atlanta is roughly an hour and a half southeast, and Cartersville and I-75 are an easy drive east. It's a location that keeps a country setting within quick reach of town. The Opportunity Two solid brick homes on eight acres of road frontage near Rome don't come up together often - and rarely with owner financing on the table. Live in one home and rent the other - the finished basement suite at 3848 makes an easy income stream - or take the whole place. On a defined sale date, in the open, competition - not a stale list price - sets the value. Auction Details & Terms Property: 3824 and 3848 Cave Spring Rd SW, Rome, GA 30161 (Floyd County parcels H16 095, 096). Offered in two tracts - individually or as a whole.
