Historic House Listings

On 4.5 acres in North Carolina. Move in ready! $250,000

April 29, 2026

This seems like a decent price! I like that  it has some acreage! The kitchen could use some help though. The house was built in 1940. It is located on 4.5 acres in Hickory, North Carolina. The house features a small front porch, wood floors, baseboards, built-in corner cabinet and a lot of natural light. The kitchen feels a bit sterile to me and I dislike the way the appliances are shoved into corners. There is a large detached garage/workshop. Two bedrooms, one bathroom and 1,231 square feet. $250,000
