My seller refers to this property as "The Nunnery House". And if these walls could talk, boy what stories they might tell! Louis Nunnery was a famed Ballet student, performer & then instructor. After traveling the world & making a name for himself in the Ballet community, he was heavily recruited by distinguished Hickory residents to come to the area to teach their daughters the art of ballet. At some point he made 3878 Robinson Road, Newton, NC his home. Built in 1780, there has been some improvements, some additions & some renovations along the way! Lots of stories about the roofless structure. Some say if was burned out by a fire decades ago. Some say that Mr. Nunnery started the construction and for whatever reason, did not complete. Either way, it was a beautiful backdrop to a gorgeous engagement dinner where white table clothes and stringed lighting decorated the space! Come see for yourself. Walk the almost 4 acres. Sit on the upper porch and enjoy the view. Pure joy!
