Constructed in the early 1900s, this two-story antique house is situated within a 1.4-acre (±) property conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Tryon. A covered verandah spans the front of the house and wraps around to a screened side porch. The house retains many of its original features, including the aged ambiance of wooden floors (except tile in the bathrooms), high ceilings with crown molding, chair rails, and original fireplace mantels. The kitchen is spacious and well-appointed, with stainless steel appliances. A formal dining room, kitchen, living room, and the primary suite are on the main level. There are two bedrooms upstairs. There's a detached building, plus an office bonus room and a bath below it. The wiring has been upgraded, and a new septic system has been installed. Additional land is available.
Classic farmhouse close to downtown Tryon with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Master bedroom on the main. The kitchen has granite counter tops and SS appliances. Some rooms are finished off with crown moldings and chair rail. Wood floors though most of the home and tile some rooms. There is a covered front porch and a screened side porch. There's a detached single car garage and small office space/bonus room equipped with shower and sink below the garage, not in total square footage. There's very spring (maybe a foot wide) that flows under ground part of the way. The house sits on 2.84 acres. Property for as-is, the owner has lived there in years.
