Description
This isn't your typical ranch! Lovingly maintained by the same family since it was built in 1965, this approximately 1,900-square-foot, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath brick home in La Grange, NC offers timeless character, generous living spaces, and thoughtful updates on a nearly half-acre lot. Conveniently located between Kinston and Goldsboro, just off Highway 70 and a short drive from Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, this well-loved home is ready for its next chapter. A beautiful flagstone front porch welcomes you inside, where a large formal living and dining area is filled with natural light. At the heart of the home, the spacious family room and kitchen feature beautiful new LVP flooring and provide an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers an abundance of custom-built cabinetry, including a large pantry cabinet, along with solid-surface countertops and bright white appliances. Just off the kitchen, the generously sized laundry / mud room adds even more functionality with a half bath and built-in home office / craft area--and a charming hidden surprise: a built-in sewing machine! In the family room, a large Andersen sliding door opens to a spacious raised brick patio with custom railings, creating a wonderful outdoor living space for relaxing, entertaining, or gathering with family and friends. The primary suite features brand-new carpeting, a private en-suite bath, and a built-in dressing and makeup area. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath complete the interior. Outside, you'll also find a covered carport and the kind of solid construction and careful upkeep that reflect decades of pride of ownership. The roof was replaced in 2023, and the crawlspace has been encapsulated with a dehumidifier installed for added peace of mind. Vinyl windows also provide low maintenance and energy efficiency. If you've been searching for a well-maintained brick home with nearly 1,900 square feet and room to enjoy outdoors, this one deserves a closer look. With its classic brick exterior, distinctive details, generous living spaces, thoughtful updates, and convenient location near Kinston, Goldsboro, and Seymour Johnson AFB, this home offers a wonderful combination of character, space, and location. The seller is also offering a one-year home warranty and would consider a seller credit to assist with buyer's closing costs or an interest rate buy down with an acceptable offer.
