This well-maintained 1938 brick cottage offers a strong combination of historic character and comprehensive modern upgrades and is priced to sell. The home features two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, with ample square feet of finished living space, on a 6,534-square-foot lot. Original wood flooring remains throughout the home, reinforcing its historic appeal while updated systems provide long-term reliability and comfort.
The interior has been thoughtfully remodeled, including an updated kitchen and bathroom with newer appliances. The dining room has been tastefully updated with coffered ceilings and board-and-batten walls, creating a refined yet welcoming space that complements the home’s original character. All kitchen appliances, including the washer and dryer, are included with the sale. The living space includes a gas fireplace, and the chimney has been professionally cleaned, capped, and prepared for safe gas use. Plumbing updates were completed in 2015, with additional updates in 2025. Electrical systems have been fully updated, including the exterior electrical box, and meet current 2024 code standards.
The home is equipped with a regularly maintained Trane electric HVAC system that provides both heating and cooling through forced air. The system includes a touchscreen thermostat that can be controlled and scheduled via a mobile app. Energy efficiency improvements include updated windows, insulation, sealed roof eaves, and double-screened attic vents for added protection. A 50-year metal roof, installed around 2015, offers exceptional durability and long-term, low-maintenance performance.
The basement offers a crawl space, and additional space that is unfinished, with a garage door. The crawl space is fully encapsulated and equipped with a dehumidifier and circulation fans on both sides of the basement to ensure proper airflow and moisture control. This space offers excellent flexibility for storage, workshop use, or future improvements. An attached garage adds further convenience.
All camera and alarm equipment will remain with the home and be transferred to the new owner. The security system is accessible through a mobile application. The keypad entry located on the rear driveway side of the house is a standalone entry feature and is not part of the alarm system. A transferable termite bond with in-ground traps installed around the perimeter of the home is included, with the remaining term paid in full for the year, transferring with the property.
This is a true turnkey property that has been carefully maintained and updated over time. With its blend of original craftsmanship, modern systems, and tasteful design enhancements, this brick cottage offers lasting value in a convenient Rowan County location close to local amenities and represents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a well-updated home priced to sell. Plumbing updates were completed in 2015, with additional updates in 2025. Electrical systems have been updated and inspected in 2024, including the exterior electrical box.
