Built a time when homes were crafted with intention, character, and strength built to stand for generations. This timeless 1940s beauty offers the kind of architectural detail and solid craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated today. This one acre property is shaded by a majestic magnolia tree and dotted with fruit-producing pear and pecan trees, creating a peaceful setting with endless room for the garden of your dreams. Enjoy slow mornings on the front porch large enough for rocking chairs, sweet tea, and conversations that last until sunset. Inside, original hardwood floors carry the character and stories of decades gone by, while soaring 10-foot ceilings create an airy sense of elegance throughout the home. Designed for gracious entertaining and comfortable everyday living featuring a formal living room, inviting family room, and a formal dining room made for gathering. The kitchen offers an eat-in area, breakfast bar, and plenty of space to create lasting memories. Out back, a huge deck overlooks the spacious yard, including a fenced portion perfect for pets, play, or relaxing evenings outdoors. Located in town and close to everything, this home still offers the privacy and individuality that cannot be replicated in today's subdivisions. If walls could talk, these would tell stories of generations gathered, holidays celebrated, and lives beautifully lived. Now, it's ready for the next chapter. Let this be the place where your story is written for generations to come. Located in a flood zone but has never flooded. The adjoining vacant property behind the home is planned for a plant nursery and remains in the early development stages. Sellers are North Carolina licensed Real Estate Agents.

R-10
Residential District
The R-10 residential district is designed to accommodate single- and two-family homes with 10000 square feet lots required for one-family dwellings and an additional 5000 square feet required for each additional unit. For the R-10 residential district, in promoting the general purposes of this ordinance, the specific intent of this district is: (a) To encourage the continued use of the land for residential purposes.; (b) To prohibit commercial and industrial use of the land and to prohibit any other use which would substantially interfere with development or continuation of single- and two-family dwellings in the district.; (c) To encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that would not be permitted as new uses in this district.; (d) To discourage any use which would generate traffic on minor streets other than normal traffic to serve residences on those streets.; and (e) To discourage any use which because of its character and size would create requirements and costs for public services, such as police and fire protection, water supply and sewerage, substantially in excess of such requirements and costs if the district were developed solely for residential purposes.
