What's special
New full Metal Roof June 2024 This is a rare find with the acreage and possibilities. Mini Horse Farm with Brick Ranch Home on 10 Acres, Horse Paddocks, stables, and large Pond with cleared and wooded land. Not in the City Limits. This is a perfect opportunity for someone to come in and create their own small compound of tranquility. As you first walk into the side entry you step into the Red Oak room which has been used as the Living Room or Dining Room. To the right of the entrance is a spacious Laundry Room hidden by a pocket door. Next you will come into the Kitchen which has a nice size Dining Area and Pantry. Leading to a Back Entry is a Huge Tiled Sunroom which is vented for heat and air; the wall of windows allows wonderful views. Back inside the hallway on the left is the Den with a beautiful brick wood burning fireplace and is the main entry with small porch. There is a coat closet and plenty of windows. Across the hall is a Bedroom which was used as an Office/Library. In the Hallway is a full Bath and pull-down stairs to a large, floored Attic for lots of storage. Another Bedroom is located on the front corner of the house and the Master Suite on the back corner. The Master Bathroom includes a huge dual shower head tilled shower, dual sinks, and water closet. Then there is the Master Bedroom which has a spacious closet with organizers and there is also an outside entry with a porch. Stables, Horse Paddocks, Pond, and Woods complete the property. The Stables are in fair condition, Fencing and Land clearing.
How about adjoining neighbors? An Amusement Group owns the track to the left where they store their trucks and equipment, but they are on the road March through November. The Town of Holly Ridge has approved a Private Membership Gun Club and annexed the 100-acre property to the upper right, adjoining this using the same roadway.
This was rental property, but the tenant purchased a home elsewhere. Spectrum is available; Onwasa
