$82,000! Fixer upper alert! Circa 1887 in North Carolina.

May 23, 2026

Would you restore this fixer upper? It definitely needs a lot of work. That price probably needs to come down. The house was built in 1887. It is located on .33 acre in Tarboro, North Carolina. The house features a covered front porch, a large back patio, baseboards, brick fireplace, wainscoting, wood floors, vintage light fixtures and double front doors. Tarboro has been undergoing revitalization, but this price isn’t warranted quite yet. This is a big house! Five bedrooms, four bathrooms and 3,703 square feet. $82,000
