Wasn’t expecting the interior of the porch! Circa 1900. Over an acre in NC. $262,500

October 25, 2025

This house has a bit of a Talk Amongst Yourselves feel to it. Was not expecting the interior of the porch. If you pull up street view, it seems like a church across the street. So you sit in your hot tub as the congregation files in. On a positive note, the seller is providing a paint allowance. The house was built in 1900. It is located on 1.38 acres in Catawba, North Carolina. There is some undoing to be done in this house, but it is livable. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 2,637 square feet. $287,500 New price: $262,500

Even Santa has been known to ride through the streets of Catawba on his way to the North Pole each year, and you’ll surely be on his nice after restoring this historical home!
