Double Porch Love! Has a guest apartment! Circa 1928 in North Carolina. $269,000

July 4, 2025

Love a house with double porches! There is a detached guest apartment on this property! The house was built in 1928. It is located on .44 acre in Lowell, North Carolina. The house feels a bit dark to me, but if they had taken pictures on a sunny day that would have helped. Definitely needs some paint changes. The house features double front porches, stained glass front door, some wood floors, crystal chandelier and updated bathrooms. There is a detached guest apartment with 610 square feet. Four bedrooms, four bathrooms and 2,872 square feet. $269,000
