Price improvement on this thoughtfully Renovated Ranch on over 5 acres! Built in 1970 and refreshed from top to bottom, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home sits on 5.5 acres in Pittsboro, offering comfort, space, and peace of mind. Recent upgrades include a heat pump and central AC system installed October 2022 with a thermostat, a metal roof installed in 2018, and a mold-remediated, sealed crawlspace with a dehumidifier. Inside, the sellers opened up the main living space, creating a bright, free-flowing layout accented by crown molding in the dining room. Popcorn ceilings have been removed and freshly painted throughout, and the kitchen features replaced countertops with freshly painted cabinets.
