About this home
Sellers are offering 3% in concessions! Located near the upcoming Capeton development with greenways, retail spaces, and more! Set on 4.9 acres, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers space, history, and character you simply can't recreate. Built by a local contractor, every detail was thoughtfully selected, resulting in a home with lasting quality and a story to tell! From the moment you arrive, the wraparound front porch welcomes you in--perfect for quiet mornings or winding down at the end of the day. The property itself is just as meaningful as the home, with a mature hedgerow of towering pine trees that were once hand-planted as small saplings, now creating a natural sense of privacy and beauty. The land carries a unique legacy, once home to renowned daylily gardens that drew horticultural groups from across the country. Even today, you can feel the charm and care that made this property so special. Out back, the porch becomes a favorite gathering place in the warmer months--ideal for relaxing evenings, grilling, and enjoying the peaceful surroundings with the ceiling fan gently spinning overhead. Inside, you'll find a fun and unexpected feature--a ''secret'' path to the attic. Tucked inside a closet in the upstairs bedroom, a hidden staircase leads to a spacious attic that offers incredible potential for a bonus room, creative space, or additional storage. Located in Harnett County with a Fuquay-Varina address, this home sits conveniently between Fuquay-Varina and Lillington, offering accessibility while benefiting from lower county taxes. This home is ready for its next chapter. While some updates could enhance it further, the character, craftsmanship, and history already in place are truly one of a kind!
