Welcome to this true gem tucked into the desirable Gillette Woods neighborhood. This charming home offers the best of both worlds: a private 1.56-acre setting with the perks of being inside city limits. This home has room to stretch out and grow with 1,615 square feet of living space on the main level and 1,006 square feet in the unfinished basement. Creative minds will love the detached 230-square-foot artist studio, an ideal retreat for painting, writing, or working from home. You’ll find a nod to traditional Tryon craftsmanship with light wormy chestnut walls in the living room. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout offers recent upgrades like a whole-house generator and attractive wrought iron fencing. Located just a short golf cart ride from downtown and minutes from restaurants, theaters, galleries, and community events. It’s a rare combination of convenience, privacy, and character. Perfect for full-time living or a second home. Don’t miss the chance to own a slice of Tryon’s charm!
