124 Riverside Road, Carthage, NC 28327
What's special
44.83 ACRES • DEEP RIVER FRONTAGE • PRIVATE TRAILS • MODERN UPGRADES • ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES Opportunities like this are few and far between. Nestled on 44.83 acres with approximately ¼ mile of frontage along the Deep River, 124 Riverside Road offers the perfect blend of privacy, recreation, and modern convenience. While the home is surrounded by mature hardwoods and the river is not currently visible from the house, the property offers significant potential for future enhancement, allowing the next owner to create their own vision of this riverfront setting. The custom-built brick home features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a dedicated office/den, multiple living areas, and an oversized walk-in pantry. The kitchen includes granite countertops, updated appliances, abundant cabinetry, and generous workspace. Designed with accessibility in mind, the home offers wide hallways, wider doorways, and a no-step primary shower. The home is also equipped with a propane-powered standby generator. Over the years, the owners have invested in the home and infrastructure. Recent improvements include a whole-home solar energy system, two Tesla Powerwall battery backup systems, and a SPAN Smart Electrical Panel (2025). Additional updates include a professionally recoated and painted metal roof, two new water heaters (2024), gigabit fiber internet, a new well pump (2022), and seamless gutters. Beyond the home, the property includes approximately three miles of private bridle and walking trails suitable for horseback riding, hiking, ATV use, hunting, or enjoying the acreage and wildlife. The barn provides flexibility for horses, equipment, workshop space, or storage, with water service already extended to it. Important disclosure: A prior transaction did not proceed after a home inspection. All inspection reports and related invoices are available in the Documents section of this listing for full review. The sellers have agreed to provide a credit at closing totaling $16,174.85 to address the primary items identified: replacement of the septic tank (invoice provided in Documents); resolution of a structural issue by TGU (paid at closing; work to be completed post-closing; invoice attached); and installation of a commercial-grade dehumidifier in the crawlspace (TGU invoice to be paid at closing). These items represent the major findings from the inspection. The home is solid overall and offers good bones with room for the buyer's preferred updates and personalization (''TLC''). Whether you are seeking a private homestead, equestrian property, recreational getaway, or simply room to enjoy nature, this property provides substantial acreage, Deep River frontage, extensive improvements, and modern amenities that are increasingly uncommon. 124 Riverside Road is an opportunity to create the lifestyle you envision.
