About This Property

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 fully updated in 2016, including HVAC, electrical, and plumbing (all permitted by the City of Gastonia), 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.
