North Carolina Waterfront Homes for Sale: 3 Acres of Creek-Front Home with Wrap-Around Porch and Hardwood Floors. Originally built in the 1880s, this quaint remnant of a bygone period was formerly a busy business with apartments. In 2001, the property underwent a thorough renovation that combined the old and the new. It now stands tall and proudly awaits new owners who value both the past and the present. This large 3-acre property has a magnificent 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home situated on a tranquil creekfront. While the interior gives a nice surprise of new elements that appeal to contemporary living, the outside emerges with historic beauty. Imagine stepping out onto a charming wrap-around porch to relax and enjoy the quiet surroundings.
The classic hardwood floors within the house never cease to astound, lending warmth and charm to each space. Large windows let in plenty of natural light, and high ceilings add to the home’s feeling of grandeur and openness. The layout, which includes a practical bedroom and bathroom on the first floor, was intelligently created to meet a variety of demands. For visitors or people who would rather live on one level, this option is ideal. With three acres at your disposal and no homeowner association (HOA) to restrict you, you are free to customize your property anyway you see fit.
This historic home is obviously exceptional, but it becomes even better with the property’s creek access via light wetlands. Imagine getting out of your backyard with a little boat, exploring the calm creek, and spending quiet time on the water. Numerous outbuildings on the site offer plenty of space for storage or possible other purposes. To add even more flexibility, building permits for a new garage have already been obtained. This house offers more than simply a place to live; it’s a chance to design a way of life that values ease and exploration.
This property, which is close to town, provides the best of both worlds: convenient access to metropolitan services and a private, rural refuge. Boaters who want to experience more vast water experiences will find it excellent because of its close proximity to a larger boat launch. This place caters to those who like kayaking, fishing, or just spending time on the water. The home’s charm has been further boosted by recent improvements. The home’s structural integrity is increased by work done in the crawl space, and a new roof and gutters guarantee longevity and weather protection.
This property welcomes you to enter a world where modernism and history coexist. It’s a canvas for your hopes and desires—more than just a place to live. This house offers countless opportunities, whether you want to entertain on the wrap-around porch, take in the peace and quiet of the stream, or develop the land to fit your requirements. Living in a place with historical significance, contemporary amenities, and breathtaking scenery is like no other. This magnificent house is currently looking for new owners who are eager to add to its history and make it their own.
