A charming 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath cottage has many unique features in addition to this interesting history. A beautiful deck overlooking an English garden style back yard, lovely arches in the Living room, and cabinets in the kitchen are a few features. After many renovations, the owners are able to sit on their deck and have a great view of the South Mountains. The bathrooms are not large, but very functional. Located within walking distance of historic downtown Morganton and in the very desirable West Park neighborhood.
