About this House

Recognize this one? I'll bet you do! It was featured on Mr. Beast's ''You Build It, I'll Buy It'' competition, and now this small-town winner in the heart of Ayden can be yours! Built in 1921 and fully remodeled over the last three years, this 3 bedroom home got the works: new kitchen counters and appliances, updated baths, new flooring, fresh paint, all of it, while keeping the character only a hundred-year-old house can offer. Start the day on the covered front porch with a cup of coffee before heading inside to a bright living room. The front bedroom sits just off to the left, and with an original glass pane door from the 1921 build. It makes a great office! Down the hall you'll find the other two bedrooms, including the primary, plus a guest bath right where you need it. The kitchen flows into the dining area, so whoever's cooking is never cut off from the conversation. You have plenty of backyard for a garden or a cookout without spending your whole Saturday on the mower, and the one car garage with a manual door keeps your tools, equipment and car out of the weather. You can walk to the park, the library, the post office, and downtown Ayden, where some of the most well-known barbecue in eastern North Carolina is smoking most days, and Greenville is a short drive when you need it. All financing types welcome, including USDA, and the home sits outside the flood zone. There's a spot near the front bedroom where the flooring is a bit unlevel. It's solid underfoot and no issues have been found stemming from it. Old houses have quirks, and this one wears its own well. The crawlspace vapor barrier is in good shape and there are no known pest issues. Book your showing before somebody else beats you to that porch!

    "I've lived in this neighborhood for 20 years & can't wait to get out of Ayden. The Utility Bills are the highest around. The town management is 30+ years out of date. Roads are horrible, crime is on a rise, gang activity worse than Greenville. Governing body won't help citizens unless they know you or you can do something for the town."

    "The neighborhood is nice, honestly. Most folks are quiet, and everyone pretty much keeps to themselves. You'll see people walking their dogs or jogging, but not much past that. Only real problem is the company that built the subdivision did a piss-poor job grading the land. There's no drainage, and no ditches to drain to in the first place. There's a "park" at the back of the neighborhood, presumably for children, but it's overgrown and swampy, and my four-year-old is not allowed back there; I'm worried about water moccasins. The HOA can be a little overbearing, too, and compulsory dues are a little medieval, but we've gotten used to it. That said, I'm not sure what exactly they are meant to do. Overall, my wife and I are trying to pay off this house as quickly as possible so that we can get into a new place. One with no HOA, and where I can use my yard."

    "School system's terrible, but it is everywhere in NC. There is literally no drainage in Countryaire, so expect water to make your yard unworkable after a storm; a week or two is common. And the HOA loves to bother people about their yards and gardens, even when there's nothing that can be done about it. Overall it's pretty quiet , and the homes are cute, but there's pretty much zero community involvement. I live in Countryaire now, and I can't wait until my mortgage is paid down enough to move."

    "Living in Countryaire Village is the perfect example of comfortable and modern Eastern North Carolina living. Located in the Greenville metro area, Ayden is in preferred southern Pitt County area. Countryaire Village is just south of Winterville on Old Hwy 11/Lee St. just before entering downtown Ayden on the right side. Easy access to Hwy 11. Only 11 miles from Vidant Medical Center and 4 miles south of Sam's Club on Hwy 11. "
