About this home
NEW PRICE — $415,000! A thoughtfully updated piece of Sanford history, 1105 Cool Springs Road was originally built in 1900 and is filled with the character and craftsmanship you simply don't find in newer construction. Situated on .86 acres, this one-of-a-kind property blends historic charm with meaningful updates and inviting spaces both inside and out. From the moment you pull into the circle drive, you'll appreciate the peaceful setting and freshly painted exterior that brings new life to this historic home. Relax on the classic rocking chair front porch with a glass of sweet tea, unwind on the upstairs balcony, or take advantage of nearby parks and walking trails, including Endor Furnace Trail and Kiwanis Family Park. Inside, the home offers a flexible floor plan featuring a main-level primary bedroom, a sunroom filled with natural light, and an updated kitchen complete with a spacious island, double sinks, and plenty of room for gathering and entertaining. Multiple fireplaces throughout the home add warmth and historic character. Upstairs you'll find two additional bedrooms, including one with a charming decorative fireplace, along with a tastefully updated bathroom that provides modern comfort while complementing the home's original appeal. Then there's one of our favorite features is the hidden "secret door!" Tucked inside an upstairs bedroom.

The report is available for review and provides valuable information upfront, helping remove some of the uncertainty and additional legwork that can come with purchasing a home of this age. Outside, you'll find a detached shed and plenty of room to enjoy the nearly acre-sized property. Commuters will appreciate convenient access to US-1 and US-15/501, making travel to the Triangle and surrounding areas easy while still enjoying the charm and character of historic Sanford.
