    What's special

    Almost new cottageLong grass drivewaySteel roof
    Almost New Cottage Overlooking a Stuningly Beautiful Horsefarm on Rte 55 Oriental, NC. The surrounding Farm Property makes their property look much bigger then it is with a long grass driveway and ample room to store boats or RVs out back. With this home’s high visability along the busy country road it would make a great Airbnb Vacation Property only 4 minutes to Oriental Village and the Bean. This house also comes furnished all with exception to a few pieces of art. All furniture is brand new some still with tags. The owners plans have recently changed Septic County Water and Two Electric Hooks for RVs 50 amp / 30 Amp. Finishing off under this raised home as a storage / bunk room man cave work shop would add additional use. Heated by a Senville Mini Split and Giant Ceiling Fan. There is also a storage loft above the bedroom and bathroom. Also comes with new appliances Samsung washer and and Bosh Dryer and New Refrigerator. The home is also well insulated to keep it warm cool or quiet also includes a Steel Roof , Hardy Plank Face and Vinyl Siding on the sides and back. The home will increase in square footage very soon and add another 512 soft of usable interior space. large pecan tree and pear tree. The owner is a sailing instructor with lots of boats and Will of course be removing them but he might be able to leave one behind for you to enjoy your sailing dream come true. Ask Will about the recent large price increase. There is a very very good reason for it.
