2850 Mathis Church Rd, Catawba, NC 28609

Tucked away in the peaceful countryside of Catawba, this one-of-a-kind timber-frame home blends rustic character with thoughtful modern updates on a beautiful, private setting. Originally stick-built in 1969 and relocated to its current site in 2012, the home showcases stunning architectural details throughout, including gorgeous vaulted ceilings with white-painted wood panels, dark-stained exposed beams, and a dramatic, stacked-stone, decorative, floor-to-ceiling fireplace that serves as the showpiece of the great room. The open layout flows from the great room into the dining area and spacious kitchen featuring granite countertops, black-painted real wood cabinetry, tile backsplash with decorative accents, island with breakfast bar, and Samsung dark stainless appliances. Each of the 3 bedrooms enjoys its own ensuite bath, creating a comfortable and private retreat for family or guests. The primary suite overlooks the peaceful wooded back yard and includes a walk-in closet plus a beautifully updated bath with tiled shower and granite vanity. A versatile bonus/flex space offers laminate wood floors, a full bath, laundry area with sink, private exterior access, and a new heat pump installed in February 2025. Outdoor living shines with a vaulted and beamed front porch, back deck, fire pit area, and attractive landscaping additions. Additional highlights include hardwood floors installed during the 2012 relocation, updated plumbing, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, new windows and doors in 2021, board and batten siding, new crawl space vapor barrier in 2025, walk-up attic storage, and an oversized 2-car carport with vaulted exposed beam ceiling. The powered and insulated storage building with quartz workbench adds even more versatility for hobbies, storage, or workshop use. This truly special property offers the warmth and craftsmanship of a mountain-style retreat while still being convenient to nearby towns and amenities.
