Description
Historic character meets serious upside in this 1905 Victorian in the heart of downtown Kenly -- now priced at $192,000. With over 2,600 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths, this home delivers the kind of details you can't recreate: soaring ceilings, original hardwoods, intricate trim, and a statement staircase that still commands attention the second you walk in. The layout already does you a favor. A first-floor primary suite with fireplace, walk-in closet, and spacious bath sets the stage, while upstairs bedrooms and a second-story balcony layer in even more architectural charm. The home needs work. Updates. Vision. Execution. But that's exactly where the margin lives! Screened porch, detached two-car garage, and a downtown location that puts you steps from local events, parades, and everyday small-town energy. Opportunities like this don't come around often!!! Come be a part of NC history!!

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageJust to start, if you have a child with special needs, this is not the school for you. My child is singled out and humiliated by his bus driver. Also they have a few teachers that will tell you that there is no such thing as a learning disability that your child is just lazy! When these issues are brought to the attention of principal or other staff, no one is reprimanded, just excuses are made.Parent Review12y ago - North Johnston High
