Featuring three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths, the home welcomes you with a large living room filled with natural light and a floor plan designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen and dining area combine into a warm gathering space highlighted by a beautiful brick fireplace. Large glass doors lead out to an expansive deck overlooking the fenced backyard—perfect for pets, play, gardening, or relaxing evenings outdoors. A utility building provides additional storage for tools and outdoor equipment. Down the hall, you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms along with a full bath and a convenient half bath connected to the primary bedroom. Downstairs, the home offers an incredible bonus area with approximately 571 square feet of finished den space featuring a second fireplace. While the ceiling height is slightly under seven feet and cannot be included in the home’s heated square footage, it provides an excellent flex space for a recreation room, media room, office, workout area, or hobby space. The remainder of the basement offers abundant storage possibilities. Conveniently located just minutes from the Catawba River and a short drive to downtown Morganton and Valdese, this property combines comfort, functionality, and easy access to shopping, dining, and outdoor recreation.
