About This Home

Designed by local architect Folger Architecture, the mid-century details in this downtown Morganton home make it a refreshing departure from cookie cutter construction. This home is located on one of downtown Morganton's most popular thoroughfares - providing the perfect location to walk or bike to downtown Morganton. Enjoy shopping, dining, concerts, and community events.

Step inside off one of several covered decks into the dining room. A functional size for dining and using as the hub of the house. Off the dining room is the kitchen where the details continue.

Thoughtfully designed to complement the home's architecture, the kitchen features clean lines, warm wood finishes, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, and period-inspired lighting that celebrates the home's original character. Two of the home's four bedrooms are located on the main level in addition to a full bathroom. The living room on the main floor is one of two dedicated living spaces in the home and features a gas fireplace.

Step out from the living room into the sunroom and then onto the uncovered back deck. Upstairs you'll walk into the second living room where the attention to detail continues. This living room is centrally located between two large bedrooms.

One bedroom has a Juliet balcony and the other a private covered deck. Upstairs also offers a huge walk in closet and a full bathroom. Need extra storage?

The unfinished basement provides plenty of room for everything from holiday décor to outdoor gear. There is also a finished office in the basement that isn't included in the heated square footage but is the perfect spot to work, create, or play in a home office or studio. The basement office also has a separate exterior entrance.

There is also a half bathroom in the basement. A rare opportunity to own a home where thoughtful architecture, timeless design, and an unbeatable downtown location come together!
