2.12 Acres in Westfield, NC - $260,000
OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY APRIL 1ST FROM 2-4 PM. COME BY AND SEE THIS GREAT PROPERTY! They didnt mean to take on a renovation project like this but the old house was so proud and obviously quite grand in its day so they had no choice but to make it better than new! Country farmhouses in our area are usually pretty utilitarian, nothing fancy, just functional. This home was built by someone who had the money to use wood wainscoting throughout, a staircase with a double newel post at the turn, double French doors opening to the dining room, lots of windows and a porte cochere on the side. The style of the home is Craftsman as evidenced by the wood siding and cedar shakes, exposed roof rafters and front porch with thick columns. The home sits on a slight knoll that overlooks the surrounding countryside on 2.12 acres with approx. 1100 ft of road frontage on Horseshoe Road. The acreage is clear and l...
OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY APRIL 1ST FROM 2-4 PM. COME BY AND SEE THIS GREAT PROPERTY! They didnt mean to take on a renovation project like this but the old house was so proud and obviously quite grand in its day so they had no choice but to make it better than new! Country farmhouses in our area are usually pretty utilitarian, nothing fancy, just functional. This home was built by someone who had the money to use wood wainscoting throughout, a staircase with a double newel post at the turn, double French doors opening to the dining room, lots of windows and a porte cochere on the side. The style of the home is Craftsman as evidenced by the wood siding and cedar shakes, exposed roof rafters and front porch with thick columns. The home sits on a slight knoll that overlooks the surrounding countryside on 2.12 acres with approx. 1100 ft of road frontage on Horseshoe Road. The acreage is clear and level with some mature shrubs and trees. There is a two car detached garage with electricity and a 2 stall barn with large hayloft that has water and electricity. A nice gravel parking area that will accommodate 3 cars welcomes visitors. Arriving at the front porch, notice the original porch swing with views of a horse farm across the road. The front porch has new porch railings and a Circa 1925 plaque by the door. Almost all of the panes of glass in the front door are original. Enter into the front room were calling the study and turn left through the large opening into the living room. The heart pine floors gleam throughout this level. There are 4 windows in the living room, wood crown molding with teardrop corners and a fireplace that is gorgeous but non-functional. The hearth is inlaid with colored, glazed tiles perfect for this period. Double French doors open into the large dining room with 3 windows looking south over the countryside. Dark wood wainscoting makes the room formal and there is a built in buffet with antique glass in the doors with a pattern that mimics the period wallpaper pattern. Enter the kitchen next and forget yesteryear because the kitchen is a tribute to what every cook wants today. A large island was designed to provide lots of counter top space and entertaining possibilities. Granite countertops highlight farm style cabinets with soft close drawers. A stacked stone backsplash behind the range ties the look together.
