Description
A rare opportunity to own the timeless charm of a 1920 farmhouse on 2.5 unrestricted acres, with room to live, work, and enjoy the freedom that only country living can provide. The heart of the home is a truly exceptional custom kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Featuring handcrafted soft-close cabinetry with thoughtful built-ins including spice drawers, pull-out shelving, a built-in trash cabinet, cutting board storage, glass-accented doors, under-cabinet and upper-cabinet lighting, granite and quartz countertops, tile backsplash, a custom vent hood, and a spacious center island, every detail has been carefully considered. The showpiece is the handcrafted Italian ILVE Majestic dual-fuel range with four gas burners and a built-in rotisserie, creating a kitchen that is as functional as it is beautiful. All kitchen appliances remain. Inside, you'll appreciate 9-foot ceilings and inviting spaces filled with character. The home is also protected by a current termite bond for added confidence. The spacious primary suite offers a luxurious retreat with a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a walk-in tile shower, dual vanities, an LED mirror, and a generous walk-in closet. Just beyond the closet is a massive laundry room complete with abundant storage, utility sink, automatic garage-style door access for small pets, and the washer and dryer, which will remain with the home. Step outside to enjoy the covered rear deck overlooking the fenced backyard, perfect for pets, gardening, or simply relaxing while taking in the peaceful surroundings. Storage and workshop space are unmatched. The impressive 30 x 40 detached garage features 12-foot eaves, 10-foot doors, spray foam insulation, water, electricity, and a separate pedestrian entrance, making it ideal for hobbies, equipment, or a home business. An additional 24 x 25 detached garage with full power provides even more flexibility, while the 40-foot shipping container offers outstanding storage for tools, recreational equipment, or seasonal items. Located just three-quarters of a mile from Cotton Gin Park, this property offers the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient access to a community amenity. With 2.5 unrestricted acres, you'll have the freedom to raise animals, cultivate a garden, pursue hobbies, operate a home business, or simply enjoy the privacy and space that are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Full of character and ideally located, this is far more than a farmhouse. It's a North Carolina dream lifestyle.
