Every town claims their own part of history and Stovall, home to N. C. 's first Boy Scout Troop and initial headquarters to the Western Union Telegraph Company, does too. Located minutes outside of Oxford, Stovall and 4077 Rockwell Road offer a chance to live a quality, peaceful, and private sort of life so many would like to find. Raise a family and entertain others while still being close to town as many would say. This is Big Sky Country where the sun rises from the South and shines on the front porch. Enjoy the property's ageless soaring oak trees, take a dip in the heated saltwater pool, take advantage of its own bathhouse, rock on the screen or front porch to one's content, or walk to the barn to attend to your horse. All of this contributes to a lifestyle like no other. The home, thought to be about 113 years old, has always been well cared for. As you might imagine, it is a farm house with lots of charm, and it also has 5 fireplaces, which can be used w/ ventless gas logs, 4 modernized HVAC systems and window replacements, a guest/mother-in-law suite, and is in move-in condition.
