Property Description
Extraordinary fusion of Southern charm with contemporary upgrades. Sitting on a spacious 0.6 acre lot in the heart of Vanceboro, this beautifully restored 1920s home offers over 4,200 square feet of refined living space. 8 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a thoughtfully designed layout ideal for both entertaining and everyday comfort. The stately curb appeal begins with a concrete driveway accented with brick, guiding you to a grand brick staircase and an expansive covered front porch with a traditional ''Carolina Blue'' ceiling, swing & show-stopping central flower bed. Enchanting walkways lined with river rock and pavers add elegance to the grounds, while the fully fenced backyard, rear deck, and patio area offer ideal settings for outdoor living. Inside, there is rich wood flooring, beamed ceilings, detailed wainscoting, beadboard accents and custom built-in shelving, adding tons of extra details throughout-each element contributing to the home's timeless character. The inviting foyer leads to an expansive main-level primary suite with a spa-inspired en-suite bathroom, featuring a deep-soaking tub, an oversized walk-in shower with dual shower heads, and a spacious walk-in wardrobe (closet). The fully upgraded kitchen hosts quartz countertops, a large centre island, gas convection range, classic subway tile backsplash, high-end cabinetry with under-mount lighting, farmhouse sink, and an adjacent pantry/laundry room that enhances everyday functionality. Upstairs, additional bedrooms with two full bathrooms, each with dual vanities, a large laundry room, and access to a wonderful second-floor balcony. Unique architectural details in every room. This is a must-see for those seeking to own a beautifully curated historic home with modern conveniences incorporated throughout. The third floor is unfinished with room for storage and/or could be finished to create additional living area(s). Seller was approved to build a detached 2-car garage (permit on file).
