Property Description

NOT IN A SUBDIVISION and situated on OVER AN ACRE in the sought-after NORTH JOHNSTON SCHOOL DISTRICT, this BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED home offers the kind of CHARACTER, CRAFTSMANSHIP, and peaceful setting that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. From the FULL-LENGTH COUNTRY FRONT PORCH to the REAL WOOD FLOORS, TONGUE-AND-GROOVE CEILINGS, and mature PECAN TREE, this is a property that feels like home the moment you arrive. Offering nearly 1,800 square feet with 3 BEDROOMS and 2 FULL BATHS, this home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving the warmth and charm that make it truly special. The BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED KITCHEN features SOLID SURFACE COUNTERTOPS, STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES, abundant cabinetry, and a bright dining area perfect for everyday living. The inviting family room centers around a cozy FIREPLACE and provides the ideal gathering space for relaxing evenings or spending time with family and friends. The owner's suite offers a comfortable retreat, while the additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, family, or a home office. A dedicated laundry room with cabinetry and utility sink adds convenience to daily living. Outside, the lifestyle is just as appealing as the home itself. Imagine starting your mornings with coffee on the ROCKING CHAIR FRONT PORCH and ending your evenings beneath the shade of your very own PECAN TREE enjoying the country breeze. In addition to the ATTACHED 2-CAR GARAGE, you'll find a LARGE WORKSHOP and additional outbuilding space ideal for hobbies, storage, equipment, or projects. Conveniently located with easy access to I-95, Wilson, Raleigh, and surrounding areas, this IMMACULATE, MOVE-IN READY property offers the perfect blend of COUNTRY CHARM, MODERN UPDATES, and room to enjoy life both inside and out.
