Property Description

Timeless character meets modern comfort in this beautifully restored early-1900s home, ideally located in Gastonia’s historic district with zoning that allows for commercial office space. Owned by a contractor and thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, this cozy yet exceptionally well-built property offers the charm of an older home with none of the typical older-home issues—and truly too many upgrades to mention. Inside, you’ll find real original hardwood floors throughout and an oversized primary bedroom featuring three closets, offering rare space and storage for a historic home. The custom-built kitchen is a showstopper with granite and quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, pot filler, primary and prep sinks, and a convenient appliance lift/mixer stand. All kitchen appliances convey. Additional upgrades include a whole-house water filtration system, reverse-osmosis drinking water faucets, and an on-demand tankless water heater. Major systems were updated in 2016, along with injected foam insulation in all exterior walls. The home also features new exterior doors, Low-E glass windows, and a roof replaced in 2012, providing energy efficiency and peace of mind. Outdoor living shines with a 500-sq-ft cobblestone patio, brick built-in grill with natural gas, attached water spigot, inground drip irrigation, and low-maintenance, drought-resistant landscaping—no grass to mow. A detached oversized double garage (24’ x 28’, built in 2020) is fully insulated with ceiling fans, epoxy floors and ample storage. Storage is abundant with a large floored attic with closet rods, basement storage, and additional garage space. Located in a quiet, walkable neighborhood with lots of walkers and dog walkers, this move-in-ready home is within walking distance to Gastonia’s favorite foodie spots, Caromont Ballpark, and just two blocks from the Greenway. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously upgraded historic home in one of Gastonia’s most desirable areas. This home shares a driveway with the property next door.
