    What's special

    Large walk-in closet
    LOCATION, PRIVACY & POSSIBILITY—JUST 1.2 MILES FROM DOWNTOWN MORGANTON! Some properties are simply homes. This one is a story—and an opportunity to make it your own. Tucked into a peaceful, wooded setting surrounded by 100+ acres of largely undeveloped land, this unique property offers something increasingly hard to find: genuine privacy without sacrificing convenience. Downtown Morganton is only about 1.2 miles away, close enough for an easy bike ride while still feeling worlds away. Deer regularly visit the surrounding landscape, and nature seems to be waiting just outside the windows. Originally a smaller home, this ambitious renovation has been substantially expanded and transformed into a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence with a large primary suite designed to embrace the natural setting. French doors open from the primary bedroom toward the outdoors, while the private bath features a walk-in shower with custom tile and a large walk-in closet. Step onto the deck and enjoy the peaceful wooded surroundings. Inside, the open floor plan creates a bright, inviting gathering space centered around the kitchen. Much of the heavy lifting has already been completed, including new electrical, plumbing, drywall, insulation, roof, windows, doors and HVAC. Rough inspections have been completed. Significant site work has also been done, including removal of numerous hazardous trees and the addition of substantial gravel. The home combines original hardwood flooring with new LVP flooring, and a new shed provides additional storage. Many of the materials and components needed to finish the project are included. What remains is not a blank slate—it is an opportunity to put your own signature on a home that has already undergone a remarkable transformation. Finish the kitchen island, bar and countertops, complete the bathrooms to your taste, and make the final design choices your own. The current owner has invested substantial time, effort and resources into bringing this vision to life and is now ready to pass the project to someone who can carry it across the finish line. There is still work to be done, but much of the difficult work has already been undertaken. Imagine waking up surrounded by trees and wildlife, enjoying coffee on your deck, then hopping on a bicycle and being downtown in minutes. That combination of privacy, natural beauty and accessibility is exceptionally difficult to duplicate. If you’ve been searching for something different—something private, close to town, full of character and potential, and already transformed from the ground up—come see it for yourself. This isn’t simply a house waiting for a buyer. It’s a home waiting for its next chapter. Bring your vision and finish the story. Seller is a Realtor. Permits obtained, work not completed.
