Step into a piece of history with loads of character and modern design touches nestled on 1.1 acres for an ideal blend of rural charm and urban accessibility making this classic vintage home the perfect location for a peaceful lifestyle. Nestled between the amenities of two cities, 15 minutes to either Sanford or Pittsboro! Built in 1951, this timeless ranch has all the extras! The house has been freshly painted, and the downstairs bath updated with contemporary fixtures. Original hardwood flooring is highlighted in some of the rooms, a cozy wood stove is featured in the family room creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, the bright kitchen whose crowning glory is a double drainboard sink, showcases a custom butcher block countertop next to the range, and an oversized laundry room with custom shelving are just some of the character traits of this home. Despite their low ceilings, the tiled entry with its drop zone location, dining room and breakfast room spaces add 243 square feet of unaccounted functionality to the main downstairs area. While it is only listed as a 3 bedroom, 1 bath home, with 997 square feet, it has unique finished bonus spaces and a second full bath that provides flexibility and functionality upstairs. This additional 525 sq. feet of space is not included in the official square footage. Tucked under low ceilings, these spaces are perfect for creative uses like hobby rooms, playrooms, storage, or even a home office. These rooms still deliver value to enhance the home's overall utility. An expansive front porch and fire ring gives more entertaining space as you enjoy the wooded views. The shed is outfitted as a chicken coop or can be used for storage along with a 2-car attached garage. Above the garage is an additional 446 sq ft studio apartment fitted with a kitchenette and bath, a private entrance, its own deck, and access from inside the garage or the deck. The studio is perfect as a guest suite, living quarters for extended family, or as a short- or long-term rental space. Come add to the history and charm of this unique property!
