One acre, updated from top to bottom, and just minutes from historic downtown Edenton. This one checks boxes that are genuinely hard to find together in this market. The home has been thoughtfully remodeled with LVP flooring throughout, butcher block countertops, and bathrooms that were taken down to the studs and fully rebuilt three years ago. The open floor plan flows easily from the living area through the kitchen, where an oversized pantry with built-in outlets handles everything from small appliances to a family charging station. Three bedrooms plus a bonus room with a closet gives you flexibility for a home office, playroom, or guest space. Outside, the metal roof means one less thing to worry about. A covered front porch and rear deck extend your living space outdoors, and a mature pecan tree provides natural shade. The acre lot offers room for animals, a garden, or simply the kind of breathing room that's getting harder to find close to town. A1 zoning means chickens are welcome. Move-in ready with no immediate projects, just bring your furniture.
