A Truly Special Countryside Retreat -- Nearly 50 Years of Love, Memories & Generations...
Step back in time and discover a property where craftsmanship, family, and countless memories have created something truly special. Built in 1980 by the homeowner himself--literally with his own hands--this charming two-story countryside retreat is more than a house. It is a home filled with nearly five decades of love, laughter, stories, and blessings.
Situated on approximately 2 acres, this nearly 1,700 heated-square-foot homestead offers the space, character, and peaceful setting that are becoming increasingly rare.
On the main level, you'll find a generously sized primary bedroom with plenty of room for closets and storage. The spacious living room features a wood-burning fireplace and a cozy sitting area accented by custom built-in shelving--the perfect place to gather, relax, and make new memories.
A full bathroom with custom cabinetry and a convenient laundry room with built-ins add functionality and charm. The kitchen and dining area are just the right size for everyday living or gathering around the table with family and friends. For generations, this space has been where meals were shared, stories were told, and no one was ever considered a stranger.
Upstairs, you'll discover two spacious bedrooms, a second full bathroom, ample closet space, and additional storage areas, giving everyone room to spread out.
Then there's the dreamy front porch--a place that has witnessed countless conversations, peaceful mornings, and beautiful Carolina sunsets. The property also features a workshop housing the Carolina Waterstove, along with plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the quiet beauty of the countryside.
After nearly five generations of memories, this beloved homestead is ready for its next chapter.
Properties with this kind of history, character, craftsmanship, and heart don't come along often.
If you're looking for a place where you can slow down, make memories, and create your own family legacy, this could be the one you've been waiting for.
