March 28, 2026

Nice acreage and a lot of potential! This is one of those houses where you could move in and do projects as time and money permitted. It just needs some undoing of past renovations. The house was built in 1948. It is located on ten acres in Orrum, North Carolina. I had to look this town up. Looks like it’s a little over an hour to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The house features a covered front porch, some original wood floors, a screened in side porch, crown moulding and baseboards. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 1,500 square feet. $369,000
