Tucked away on a quiet country dead-end road, this peaceful retreat blends comfort, character, and versatility. The property features a welcoming main home with 2 beds and 1.5 bath equipped with all major appliances, a hardwired security camera system, and a rare early-1900s Majestic wood cookstove offering both vintage charm and functional heat/cooking and a detached guest cottage complete with a full kitchen, bath, and living space perfect for guests, creative work, or extended stays. Set on 2.45 wooded acres dotted with mature trees and seasonal blooms, the property also includes an oversized two-bay metal garage, offering ample space for storage, hobbies, or projects. A rare Stokes County find—just 20 minutes from Winston-Salem and moments from Hanging Rock State Park and the Dan River.
