Architectural Narrative

Completely Remodeled with Exceptional Custom Features! This beautifully remodeled home blends timeless character with modern luxury. Ideally located within walking distance of Historic Downtown Lenoir, you'll enjoy easy access to local restaurants, shopping, parks, community events, and all the charm the downtown district has to offer. The exterior is already beautifully landscaped for you! Inside the home floors are Mostly original hardwood that have been preserved throughout, including hard pine in the kitchen and oak flooring in the living and dining rooms. The original front door adds charm and welcomes you into an open-concept living space filled with natural light, highlighted by a stunning multi-glass chandelier in the dining area and a modern ceiling fan in the living room. Step outside to the newly built covered front porch—an inviting space for relaxing or entertaining. The designer kitchen is truly the heart of the home. Featuring black granite countertops, white cabinetry accented with gold hardware, a gas range with a roof-vented touchless hood, and a built-in wine cooler beneath the bar, this kitchen is both beautiful and functional. The double sink includes a built-in vegetable sprayer, glass washer, drying rack, and other thoughtful accessories that make everyday living a pleasure. Just off the kitchen is a spacious butler's pantry complete with abundant cabinetry, an additional sink, and a premium Samsung refrigerator featuring dual ice options—perfect for entertaining and extra storage. Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled with custom finishes. The guest bath features a tiled shower, modern vessel sink, built-in shelving, and tile flooring. The luxurious primary suite offers a spacious bedroom with a walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a heated tile floor, elegant clawfoot soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower with glass enclosure, and a custom vanity. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including all-new appliances, updated electrical wiring, new plumbing (including the service line from the street to the meter), a new 3-ton gas HVAC system located in the attic, a new roof, crawlspace encapsulation, exterior flood lighting, illuminated stairway lighting, and new windows throughout the home, with the exception of the third bedroom, where the original unique windows were intentionally preserved to maintain their distinctive character. Outside, the oversized lot extends all the way to Westman Street and offers endless possibilities. A curb cut is already in place should you choose to add a second driveway. The backyard provides ample space for additional parking, gardens, recreation, or, subject to local approvals, the potential to build up to an approximately 550-square-foot tiny home. The detached double garage is dry and well-maintained, featuring a large second-floor room with additional attic storage. With finishing, this space could become a studio, workshop, office, or additional heated living area. This one-of-a-kind property has been thoughtfully remodeled from top to bottom while preserving its original character. Every detail has been carefully considered, making this home truly move-in ready and an exceptional opportunity to own a beautifully restored home just steps from Historic Downtown Lenoir.
