PRICED BELOW APPRAISAL VALUE, this brick cottage in Southern Pines coveted downtown district is a standout opportunity. With 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and nearly 1,200 square feet on a 0.25 acre lot, you will love the sidewalks and quick walkability to restaurants, parks, shops, Red's Corner, and other local hot spots. The fully fenced backyard features a wooden privacy fence, screened porch, back brick patio, and beautifully landscaped front and rear grounds. An attached carport with custom built storage, work shop with electricity plus garden storage and an additional shed in backyard make it ideal for hobbyists and anyone with a green thumb. The concrete floor crawl space adds practical storage and maintenance friendly access, and the recently enlarged driveway offers extra parking and ease of always pulling out of driveway. Major infrastructure updates include sewer lines and electrical lines recently replaced by the city. Inside, enjoy meticulously maintained hardwood floors, a ceramic tiled kitchen with stackable natural gas washer and dryer, gas range and oven, cast iron farmhouse sink, and granite countertops. All appliances convey. The full bath has been fully renovated, and the half bath features an updated vanity and fixtures while keeping the original tile walls for added charm. Craftsman molding, an updated glass entry door, and built in bookshelves surrounding the craftsman fireplace mantel with natural gas logs highlight the character throughout. Mechanical systems include a natural gas tankless hot water heater and a natural gas HVAC system. The iron water fountain, iron animal statues, urns at end of driveway and butcher block island in kitchen DO NOT CONVEY with purchase of home. Shed, picnic table on screen in porch and ALL appliances DO CONVEY with purchase of home. Opportunities like this in downtown Southern Pines do not last. Buyers and investors alike should take notice and act quickly before it is gone.
