Remarks:
Step into a piece of Albemarle history with this remarkable 1924 granite Four-Square residence, originally designed by renowned Charlotte architect Louis H. Asbury for the Efird family, pioneers of Stanly County’s textile legacy. Proudly situated along West Main Street—an area celebrated for its elegant early 20th-century estates—this timeless home spans approximately 3,816 square feet of beautifully preserved character. Inside, you’ll find soaring ceilings, some original wood floors, intricate millwork, and original pocket doors, all seamlessly blending with thoughtful modern updates. The spacious main level features multiple living and entertaining areas, including a formal dining room, sunlit sitting room, and a chef’s kitchen that honors the home’s heritage while offering today’s comforts. With six bedrooms (two on the main level and four upstairs), three full baths, and two half baths, there’s ample room for family and guests. A basement provides flexible bonus space for storage or hobbies. The wraparound front porch with its classic haint blue ceiling, stately granite exterior, and well manicured courtyard create unmatched curb appeal. Showcasing the American Foursquare architectural style with Classical Revival and Neoclassical influences, this solid granite construction stands apart for its regional craftsmanship and enduring beauty. Zoned Residential Office (R-O), the property offers incredible versatility—ideal for a private residence, professional office, boutique inn, or event venue. Live, work, or both! Located just blocks from downtown Albemarle’s restaurants, shops, and Pfeiffer University’s Center for Health Sciences, this home perfectly balances history, location, and opportunity. 705 W Main Street is more than a home—it’s a landmark of rare elegance and enduring craftsmanship, where Albemarle’s rich past meets limitless future potential.
