Just minutes from Downtown Edenton--but tucked away enough to feel like your own private retreat! Set on over 7.5 acres, this picture-perfect property truly has a little bit of everything. Beautiful flowers and fruit-bearing trees, wide-open space to run and play, a playground area, wooded privacy, and an in-ground swimming pool make the outdoors just as inviting as the home itself. There's plenty of room for hobbies and toys too, with a large metal workshop/garage, gardening shed, pool shed, and attached 2-car garage. Inside, the charming 1,700 sq. ft. Cape Cod-style home keeps things comfortable and manageable with an open-concept floor plan, a main-level primary suite, and two guest bedrooms with a shared bath upstairs. Ground-level bonus space adds even more flexibility. Pool days, garden days, workshop days, or simply room to roam--159 Hickory Fork Rd is the kind of place where you can have it all, without having too much house to take care of!.
