Property Description
***Recent $30,000 Price Improvement*** Welcome to your chance to step back in time for the rare opportunity to lovingly restore this timeless 1940s home to its original mid-century grandeur with your personal touch and TLC. Situated on a private corner lot in the heart of Bethel-a community known for its charm and family-friendly amenities-this four-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers a unique blend of classic character and warmth with modern potential. At nearly 3,400 square feet, the sprawling floor plan and generously-sized living spaces feature both formal and informal dining and living rooms, an enclosed sunroom, and a flex space--providing ample area for entertaining guests or relaxing with family and friends. Further, extend your indoor living outdoors by unwinding on the covered rocking-chair style front porch by taking in the rural morning sunrises and evening sunset night skies, a nod to southern tradition and hospitality deeply rooted in eastern North Carolina. In addition to the abundance of closet space throughout the home, there is prominent storage in the detached laundry room and two-car garage, connected by a covered breezeway, for your tools, hobbies, or lawn equipment. Conveniently located approximately fifteen minutes from both Greenville and Tarboro and thirty minutes from Rocky Mount and ''Little Washington,'' you will find yourself enjoying peaceful small-town living with easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment, along with some of the area's premier work opportunities within Pitt County. Whether you're searching for a primary residence or an investment opportunity, bring your vision and creativity to revitalize this hidden gem. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history in a welcoming, close-knit community (All furnishings and personal property have been removed.)
