Motivated Seller! Rare find in the heart of Colfax. Set on 1.75 acres, with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and attached and detached two-car garages. Built like a fortress and reinforced with steel beams throughout, this home was made to last. Recent upgrades including a partial new roof, new well pump and motor with warranty, new septic pump with warranty, and 17 new windows with warranty. The home carries a remarkable legacy as the former residence of Paul Ciener, founder of the celebrated Paul J. Ciener Botanical Garden in Kernersville. A piece of that history lives on inside with the original Ford wallpaper, a preserved collector’s treasure unlike anything on today’s market. The grounds are dotted with mature peach, fig, blueberry, and pecan trees. just a short drive to the Piedmont Farmers Market and the charm of one of Guilford County’s most beloved communities. A property this rich in history, space, and soul doesn’t come along often.
