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!!
