Step back in time and discover the charm and history of this unique farmhouse, originally the Yadkin Hill School, before being thoughtfully converted into a home in 1925. As you enter, you're welcomed by beautiful hardwood floors and a warm, inviting layout. The main level features a spacious first-floor primary bedroom along with a second bedroom, offering convenience and flexibility. Just beyond, the formal dining room showcases classic built-in corner cabinets, creating the perfect space for gatherings. The large kitchen offers plenty of room to cook and entertain, complete with a cozy breakfast nook and a convenient laundry area nearby. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms provide space for family, guests, or a home office. Outside, the property truly shines with approximately 20.93 +/- acres of mostly fenced land surrounding the home, ideal for farm animals or recreation. A paved driveway leads to a detached two-car garage, while an attached one-car carport adds additional convenience. Enjoy peaceful country living with your own stocked one-acre pond, perfect for fishing or simply relaxing and taking in the beautiful surroundings.
