    Amy , 36, initially purchased one of the three homes on the property for $37,000 in July 2023.

    Now , according to a new listing from Caldwell Banker, she’s put the duplex and its accompanying two homes on the market for $69,900.

    Photos obtained by The U.S. Sun show the primary home, built in 1960, with a dark red brick exterior, white trimming, and a tin roof.

    In the front yard, there’s some discarded trash, a blue condensate receiver tank, and a series of shovels in buckets along the side.

    The front lawn has not been mowed, with overgrown patches of grass visible to passerbyes.

    Other photos show the grass overflowing onto the driveway, untrimmed hedges covering a side window, and vast expanses of weeds.

    Side views show a boarded-up window and areas with higher shrubs than the trim.

    The listing, last updated on September 4, 2024, at 10:03 AM, describes the property and says a sale is pending.

    Calling it an “Investment property on 1.24 acres with three houses,” the primary home is “a brick duplex with four beds, two baths, a new metal roof installed 4-6 years ago.”

    It has “recent updates including laminate flooring, totaling 1,976 sq ft.”

    “Next door is a three bed, one bath brick home with 1,008 sq ft. In the corner of the lot is a 1 bed, 1 bath single-family home with 672 sq ft.

    “With no zoning restrictions, this property offers great rental potential and flexibility.

    “A solid investment opportunity with multiple living spaces and updates. Don’t miss out!”

    Tammy and Amy used to live next door to each other in the duplex when they started to film their hit TLC show.

    Since then, Amy has moved on and bought her own house around half an hour away.

    Now, the duplex appears to be empty, and the realtor sign clearly indicates the property is for sale.

    This comes as Amy may face time behind bars and an investigation into her children’s safety, an expert told The U.S. Sun.

    The TLC star pleaded not guilty to drug possession and child endangerment charges after appearing in court on Thursday.

    Amy and her pal Brian Lovvorn were arrested on Monday after police allegedly found drugs in their car while at a drive-thru zoo in Crockett County, Tennessee .

    Police said two kids under 8 were in the vehicle at the time.

    A law enforcement source later confirmed to People she was with her children Glenn , 2, and Gage , 4, whom she shares with her ex Michael Halterman .

    They were allegedly later picked up by her sister, Tammy .

    The U.S. Sun reached out to Amy’s lawyer Taylor Hughes for comment but did not hear back.

    Brian also pleaded not guilty to the charges on Thursday.

    The reality star claimed a camel bit her as she was feeding one from her car, prompting zoo employees to call 911.

    As authorities from the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department arrived on the scene, they were met with an overwhelming smell coming from the vehicle .

    The vehicle was searched, and cops discovered marijuana and psilocybin mushrooms , leading to her and Brian’s arrests .

    Amy and Brian were each charged with illegal possession of Schedule I and Schedule VI drugs, along with two counts of child endangerment.

    The two were taken into custody at the Crockett County Jail and were released on Tuesday on a $10,000 bond each.

    Crockett County Sheriff’s Department public information officer Stephen Sutton said Amy’s brother, Chris Combs, bonded them out together.

    Amy and Brian were seen holding hands while leaving the jail, with Brian keeping his head down to avoid cameras.

    The two were arraigned on the charges on Thursday morning.

    Amy is set to appear back in Crockett County Court on November 7.

    THIS BITES

    In a Labor Day outing gone awry, Amy claimed to have been bitten by a camel and needed an ambulance.

    Despite Amy leaving the zoo on a stretcher, Tennessee Safari Park co-owner Claude Conley denied the claims that she had been bitten by one of their animals.

    “We dispute that Amy was bitten by a camel because there is no bruising,” Claude told The U.S. Sun.

    “She cut her arm on something, it’s not consistent with an animal bite.

    “Her boyfriend or the man she was with was acting crazy, screaming and yelling and all kinds of stuff,” Claude claimed.

    “He got mad that the police came out there because he just wanted the ambulance to come.”

    “We’ve got over 2800 exotic animals here, including giraffes, antelopes and deer – We set up the park in 2007 and we have never had any incidents.”
