for $355,000 with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. This 896 square foot home was built in 1921 on a lot size of 0.53.
Character and craftsmanship you simply can't recreate! This charming 1921 farmhouse was built with materials from the circa-1800s Bowman schoolhouse, and its history shows throughout: rare, elaborate trim casings, a genuine black Italian marble hearth in the primary bedroom, and an exposed interior wood accent wall. Three working fireplaces bring warmth and old-home character to the main living spaces. The main level offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, including a primary suite with fireplace and a jetted tub. Half of the main floor features hardwood flooring, with barn doors in the kitchen and primary bath. Fresh paint throughout, with the original wood interior walls covered in sheetrock, so you can hang a picture anywhere. Most of the original windows remain, some with wavy glass that throws prisms of light when wet, plus working counterbalance weights and working shutters. Two finished attic rooms with sloped ceilings offer flexible bonus space for an office, hobby room or storage (not included in heated square footage). Recent updates include a new roof (2025), heat pump (2024), new water heater, new well pump and bladder tank, two bathroom exhaust fans, ceiling fans, and an updated septic system. A full stand-up basement is sealed and has heat and air, ideal for storage or a workshop. Private well, plus a cistern that is not currently in use. Step outside to the screened porch, perfect for morning coffee with the songbirds. Massive oak trees shade half of the 0.53-acre lot in summer, wisteria scents the yard in spring, and the setting offers plenty of privacy. Parking for 8+ vehicles plus room for an RV, a carport and a small storage building. Enjoy county-only property taxes, no HOA, and a convenient location minutes from Lake Hickory and the golf course, within the St. Stephens school district. A rare blend of history, updates and space.
