353 Kelly St Statesville, NC 28677

This lovely home is unexpectedly back on the market through no fault of the seller or the property! Having already gone through initial contract milestones this turnkey home is fully ready for a seamless closing for qualified buyers. Thoughtfully updated and offering a winning blend of location, versatility, and charm, this move-in-ready home has already captured the attention of buyers for good reason. Nestled in one of Statesville's very quiet, established neighborhood just minutes from downtown and the historic district, it's the kind of place where neighbors tend to stay because they truly love living there. The peaceful streets and welcoming atmosphere are just as much a part of the home's appeal as its updates. It offers the character people love in an older home with the modern improvements they appreciate. Like many well-built homes of its era, it does have some uneven floor character that reflects its history while remaining structurally sound. Extensive improvements include foundation enhancements, NEW mechanicals including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, water heater, appliances, and a new crawlspace vapor barrier, providing peace of mind for years to come. Inside, fresh paint, updated LVP flooring, quartz countertops, elevated quality vanities, custom-tiled showers, a built-in dining hutch, extra closet storage, and a redesigned kitchen window overlooking the beautiful backyard make it easy to move right in. The fireplace is currently non-operational, providing an opportunity for future owners to restore it if desired. Outside, former award-winning landscaping showcases mature and exotic plantings that bloom throughout the seasons, while the fully fenced backyard, sunroom, and spacio us deck create inviting spaces for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying your own private retreat. Not just a house, but truly a home with timeless character, and a convenient location. This property presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy more features and more value. Staging furniture was removed. Listing agent is owner of the property.
