Decent price! 15 minutes to Edenton, North Carolina. Circa 1920. $169,000

August 1, 2024

This house seems like a really decent price! Only 15 minutes to Edenton, North Carolina. An hour from the Outer Banks beaches. The house was built in 1920. It is located on .61 acre in Creswell, North Carolina. The house features a covered front porch, hardwood floors, crown moulding, chair rails, wide baseboards, bead board and a spacious kitchen. My only complaint is some of that flooring is a bit dizzying. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 1,272 square feet. $169,000
