About this home
Wonderful opportunity to purchase a completely renovated home in the popular Salem community. Just minutes from I-40, downtown Morganton and numerous of dining and shopping options! Convenience of the city, but tucked out in the country! This home has had a total overhaul. Just 3 years ago EVERYTHING was updated! This home is the definition of low maintenance and move-in ready! You’ll love the rustic-farmhouse feel this home has. Along with the beautiful setting, the exposed beamed and vaulted ceilings just wow you! We dont have a high enough character limit to describe all this beautiful home has to offer. Ill say this - SEE IT TODAY! Enjoy :)
