200 Bagley Swamp Rd, Hertford, NC 27944

Far from the Madding Crowds (and very near to the North Carolina Outer Banks and Virginia Beach), is this classic 1,500 sf, 2-bed, 2-bath 1921 farmhouse (lovingly restored with energy-efficient upgrades) on a rustic country road. Its handcrafted maple gourmet eat in kitchen (opening to the great and living rooms) boasts updated appliances and granite counters, and also opens to a screened side porch and a deck. The 1.3-acre lot featuring established fruit trees, berries, and ornamental gardens is nestled in a pastoral setting of farmland and horse farms. Outbuildings include a small green house to welcome gardeners, several small storage buildings, and a wired studio/workshop. Cook out and relax in the privacy of the rear deck or sit back on the rocking chair front porch to enjoy your park-like grounds. Fifteen hundred square feet of tranquility perfect for empty nesters seeking moderate climate close to the coast.
