Diamond in the Rough! Pretty woodwork! Over an acre in North Carolina. $350,000

October 24, 2025

This house has some pretty woodwork! The setting looks private! The house was built in 1895. It is located on 1.35 acres in Fairview, North Carolina. The house features a covered front porch, original wood floors, tall ceilings, vintage light fixtures, beautiful bead board and a pretty staircase. The house needs work. Price seems a tad high to me. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 3,380 square feet. $350,000
