''Peaceful Country Living'' Welcome home to this charming Franklin County retreat, nestled on a gently sloping 0.6-acre lot where there's room to breathe, grow, and enjoy the outdoors. Imagine summer afternoons planting a garden, kids and pets playing freely in the yard, and quiet evenings spent unwinding on the side deck -- the perfect spot for grilling, gathering, or simply relaxing. A handy backyard shed keeps tools and toys neatly tucked away. You'll love the balance of peaceful living with everyday convenience. Downtown Rocky Mount -- with its shopping, dining, and live music -- is just a quick 10-minute drive, and Route 220 is less than 10 minutes away, making commuting simple. Inside, comfort awaits. The electric fireplace (complete with remote) creates a warm, cozy atmosphere fo winter evenings at home. Laundry hookups on both the main level and in the basement offer flexibility to suit your lifestyle. Thoughtful updates include a roof and all metal exterior doors replaced approximately five years ago. Downstairs, you'll find a third bedroom, generous storage space, and a nearly finished bonus room ready to become a playroom, media space, home office, or whatever your heart desires. Whether you're buying your first home or looking to downsize with the ease of primarily one-level living, this home offers comfort, potential, and a place to truly make your own. All it needs is your personal touch and vision.
