Agent Comments
Set beneath a canopy of magnificent century-old oaks on Country Club Road, this classic 1928 residence represents a special opportunity to become the next steward of this desirable address.
Directly across the street from Cape Fear Country Club and bordering the 10th hole, the setting is as remarkable today as it was nearly a century ago. Morning walks to the Club, evenings beneath the oaks, and the quiet beauty of this established neighborhood create a lifestyle that simply cannot be replicated.
Rich with architectural character, the home retains many of the details that define its era - graceful arched doorways and windows, generous room proportions, hardwood floors, and two fireplaces that have gathered family and friends for generations.
Four bedrooms occupy the upper level, including a primary suite complete with its own fireplace and a private connection to an adjacent bedroom - ideal as a nursery or an extension of the primary retreat. A second fireplace anchors the living room, a proper dining room speaks to an era of intentional entertaining, and a dedicated home office and rear flex room with private patio access round out the dynamic floorplan.
Alley access leads to a detached cottage that offers endless possibilities as a future pool house, artist's studio, or private retreat.
The expansive .62-acre homesite leaves plenty of room for what the next owner envisions. With plenty of space for a custom pool, mature landscaping, and possible fairway views, the property provides an extraordinary canvas for the next chapter.
Whether thoughtfully restored or completely reimagined, the location provides an incredible foundation for what comes next.
