ABOUT
Property Information
Timeless character meets modern comfort in this beautifully restored early-1900s home, ideally located in Gastonia’s historic district with zoning that allows for commercial office space. Owned by a contractor and thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, this cozy yet exceptionally well-built property offers the charm of an older home with none of the typical older-home issues—and truly too many upgrades to mention.
Inside, you’ll find real original hardwood floors throughout and an oversized primary bedroom featuring three closets, offering rare space and storage for a historic home. The custom-built kitchen is a showstopper with granite and quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, pot filler, primary and prep sinks, and a convenient appliance lift/mixer stand. All kitchen appliances convey. Additional upgrades include a whole-house water filtration system, reverse-osmosis drinking water faucets, and an on-demand tankless water heater.
Major systems were fully updated in 2016, including HVAC, electrical, and plumbing (all permitted by the City of Gastonia), along with injected foam insulation in all exterior walls. The home also features new exterior doors, Low-E glass windows, and a roof replaced in 2012, providing energy efficiency and peace of mind.
Outdoor living shines with a 500-sq-ft cobblestone patio, brick built-in grill with natural gas, attached water spigot, inground drip irrigation, and low-maintenance, drought-resistant landscaping—no grass to mow. A detached oversized double garage (24’ x 28’, built in 2020) is fully insulated with ceiling fans, epoxy floors, ample storage, and includes an air compressor that remains.
Storage is abundant with a large floored attic with closet rods, basement storage, and additional garage space.
Located in a quiet, walkable neighborhood with lots of walkers and dog walkers, this move-in-ready home is within walking distance to Gastonia’s favorite foodie spots, Caromont Ballpark, and just two blocks from the Greenway. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously upgraded historic home in one of Gastonia’s most desirable areas.
