Welcome to the Ward-Hogan House! Built in 1906, this roomy and comfortable 1 1/2-story cottage in the North Main Street Historic District of Graham features ample closets, upper and lower laundries, a screened porch, and a room that can be used as a home office. The house has retained original light fixtures in the public-facing rooms downstairs, two-over-five interior French doors and most exterior doors - all with true divided-light and in superb condition! The home underwent extensive renovation in 2014 and kitchen renovation in 2020-21. Improvements to this historic house include upstairs additions of a walk-in closet (2010) and second full bathroom (2014), as well as a mudroom and downstairs washroom (2014); closet space expansions in downstairs bedroom (2014); installment of an upstairs dedicated heat pump (2020); removal of all knob and tube wiring (2014); replacement of all windows and changeover of all indoor plumbing from galvanized to either copper or PVC (2008-2020). Important updates include replacement of the upstairs washer and dryer (2023); hot water heater (2022); sub-roof, shingles, gutters, and downspouts (2020); and sewer line to the street (2014). The Ward-Hogan House is just a 10-minute walk from coffee shops, restaurants, boutiques, and Alamance Arts; the Graham Library and Post Office are also walkable and just a few minutes further. Graham is within commuting distance of Chapel Hill, Durham, and Greensboro. This spacious .4-acre lot provides plenty of extra room for gardening. It features a 19.3' x 19.3' two-car-sized building with electricity and a paved floor—perfect for a workshop or could be converted for car storage.
