The garage offers GFI-protected outlets and room for tools/equipment. Outdoor lighting extends living space into the evening, with a shaded spot ready for a hammock.Community perks add even more value: POA-managed access to a private lake with established fishing rules.Located in historic Carthage, seat of Moore County in the Sandhills, enjoy a walkable downtown with local shops, murals, and events like the Carthage Buggy Festival, plus paddling and fishing on the Deep River.
