Property Description

Take a step back in time in the beautiful two story home nestled in the Lee Avenue Historic District. 141 years of Character and Charm grace you as you step onto a southern styled front porch then enter a light filled foyer with hardwood floors throughout the home. The parlor (living room) boasts an ornate fireplace with a feature wall adorned with wallpaper and bay window overlooking the front yard. An elegant dining room is encased with timeless white cabinetry and elaborate molding, the perfect setting for a formal meal. A flex room off the entry is a private space, creating the perfect office or library. A modernized kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, gas range, an abundance of wooden cabinets and cozy breakfast area. Three upstairs bedrooms are generous in size and are all conveniently located near the updated full bathroom. An enclosed porch versatile in use houses the washer and dryer with room to spare for endless possibilities along with an unfinished basement spanning 348 sqft for additional storage. Spacious backyard offers mature hardwood trees creating a park-like setting with expansive driveway, detached garage, and two sheds offering more space for a vehicle, garden tools or gas-powered toys. History lives through the home since its 1885 started as the Jonesboro Methodist Church Parsonage in the historic Lee Avenue part of Sanford. Now moments away from local and big named shops and restaurants, parks, I-412 and US-1 for easy commutes, and less than an hour from Raleigh, Greensboro and Fayetteville
