Living History

001The Historic District of Gastonia: Known for its charm and character, the Historic District offers an eclectic mix of single-family homes available in a wide variety of architectural styles and price ranges.  Those familiar with Rodi will appreciate the ability to walk there from this address.  912 Gibbons St. is nicely tucked away on a dead-end street, and makes you feel as though you could disappear into the privacy of the .4 acre, flat, heavily shaded lot.  This is, in part, what the Historic District is all about–trees that you cannot buy elsewhere.  Not because you don’t have the money; you simply don’t have the time.  The home was originally built in 1915, and many of these trees have undoubtedly grown up alongside it.

At the very accessible price point of $109,000, the 3 bed/2 bath home is completely move-in ready.  The kitchen and both full baths have been remodeled, and other updates such as a new roof will put your mind at ease about any of the possible downsides of buying an older home.  Not to worry–this isn’t a “new house,” either–original hardwood floors and an ornate fireplace mantel evoke the past and the home’s true heritage.  A unique floor plan offers the possibility of 2 master suites, along with a tiled sitting room off the living room  (not included in HLA) with many potential uses.  A detached, 2-car garage/shop in the rear could be both the setting for many projects and a project in and of itself.  The possibilities are limitless.  Make Gastonia’s past your future.

whitsondoorThis Gardner Park gem is on the market for the first time ever.

Peace, Quiet, and Luxury in South Gastonia!

9108 Butterfly Court

Beautiful stone and stucco accents on the facade of this new construction home set the tone for the luxurious fixtures and uncompromising attention to detail inside.  Elegant molding, extravagant tile work, and upscale oil rubbed bronze light/plumbing fixtures throughout the lower level draw the eye into a posh world in which sleeping “under the stars” is replicated in the comfortable indoors by the double trey ceiling with rope lighting in the master bedroom.  Two additional trey ceilings with rope lighting in the foyer and the dining room will provide a glamorous ambiance for evening dinner guests.  With its own private full bath and ample storage area, one of three additional bedrooms upstairs provides an exceptional guest suite; and a separate office with a built-in desk could double as a game room, studio, or fitness room.

Equally as wonderful as the home itself is the location–just outside of the city limits of Gastonia  in the high-end Heather Trace subdivision, featuring low HOA dues in a picturesque location off Robinson Rd.

Call 704-604-8849 today for more information on this home and to schedule a viewing appointment.
