Remarks:
What if your next home had 130+ years of stories to tell — and space for you to write the next chapter? Welcome to this 1890 brick farmhouse set on 1.85 acres — a place where history, character, and everyday living come together beautifully. With 2,847 heated sq. ft., this home offers 3 to 5 bedrooms, depending on how you use the space. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms. Downstairs, two additional rooms can flex as bedrooms, guest rooms, or work-from-home setups. The layout offers versatility for all stages of life. Just under a mile from downtown Lincolnton, you’re close enough to enjoy coffee shops, dining, and events, yet far enough to feel tucked away and at ease. From the moment you step inside, you’ll understand the appeal. I love how the exposed brick wall draws you in the instant you walk through the door — it sets the tone for the entire home. With 10’ ceilings, original hardwood floors, and light-filled rooms, the space feels warm, open, and full of personality. The updated kitchen blends old and new effortlessly, featuring white cabinetry, stainless appliances, granite countertops, a copper backsplash, and that beautiful, exposed brick that reminds you this home has a story. Two fireplaces — one wood-burning and one gas — add comfort and charm, especially on quiet winter evenings. Outside is where life slows down. Spend mornings and evenings on the side porch or simply enjoy the peaceful view of the backyard. It’s the kind of place where you’ll want to slow down and enjoy the view from the porch swing. A 480 sq ft outbuilding offers even more potential — workshop or storage. Recent updates include a new downstairs HVAC system in 2022 not 2024 as I had in here earlier, with the upstairs unit replaced around 2011. Structural repairs have been completed. Driveway closest to the mailbox is for this home. This property is ideal for anyone who appreciates character, land, and location — whether you’re buying your first home, downsizing, working remotely, or looking for something truly special. Homes like this don’t come along often. Do not use driveway to the left of the home. This does not go with property.
