March 13, 2026

This is a cute house! But I have to say, that built-in seating at the stairs is interesting. The house was built in 1937. It is located in Warrenton, North Carolina. The house features a covered front porch, wood floors, arched entryway, baseboards, built-in seating and a built-in corner cabinet. Surprised to see two staircases in this house! Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 1,753 square feet. $187,000
