Over 1500 square feet, 2 bedrooms, 1 bath 1930's cottage with maximum curb appeal sitting on a full acre lot in a quiet Elkin neighborhood and lots of NEW to talk about is a good place to start. How much NEW? Let's see - new windows, new luxury vinyl floors, new carpeting, new light fixtures through out, new paint, new kitchen and bath countertops, new kitchen and bath sink fixtures, new kitchen appliances. The roof is newer - installed in 2023. I'm running out of space, so let's just agree there's a lot to be excited about, including many original features that give this lovely cottage so much personality. Come see for yourself. SHOWINGS BEGIN FRIDAY, JUNE 5. INTERIOR PHOTOS WILL BE AVAILABLE NEXT WEEK.
