About this home
Welcome to this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offering approximately 1,180 square feet of comfortable living space. This charming single-story residence features a functional open layout with spacious living areas, an inviting kitchen, and generously sized bedrooms. Recent updates enhance the home’s appeal while maintaining its classic character. Situated on a level lot with convenient off-street parking, this property is ideally located near shopping, dining, schools, parks, and major highways for an easy commute.
Center City, located between Franklin Boulevard and the South Fork Catawba River, is a historic and civic Gastonia neighborhood with a courthouse square and a walkable main-street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around S South Street at W Main Avenue, where storefronts, coffee counters, and small galleries cluster near pocket plazas. Community pillars include the Schiele Museum of Natural History, the Gastonia Farmers Market, and the historic Webb Theatre. Brick commercial blocks and early-20th-century homes set a classic Piedmont streetscape. Government buildings and cultural venues keep sidewalks active through the week. Green edges and trail corridors tie downtown blocks to riverfront scenery.

Beautiful remodeled home walking distance to the new Honey Hunters baseball field! Great curb appeal and a welcoming front porch perfect for relaxing. New flooring throughout with totally neutral color pallet ready for you to make it your own. Fireplace and built-ins in great room. Master on main and a second bedroom! New lighting, new bathrooms, new roof, new HVAC! What more could you want? Secondary house behind this one has not been updated yet.
