About this home

This picturesque farmhouse dates way back to 1934 and is just a short distance from Lake Lure. Although the home does need some updating & repairs, it holds the potential to be a quaint homestead for the right buyer. With almost 10 acres nestled next to an apple orchard, the home retains many original features such as the beaded walls & ceiling, stone foundation w/cellar, & hardwood flooring. The back yard is fenced in with an outbuilding for storage and the well pump is only a year old. Note: appliances do not convey.
