Description

Pairing historical charm with modern convenience, the circa 1922 Lilly Carden House located at 418 W. King Street is ready for another 100 years of Hillsborough History. An expansive front porch spans the width of the house, and is a grab-your-rocking-chair-and-glass-of-sweet-tea kind of porch. It was just made for lounging on the porch swing and catching North Carolina breezes as neighbors and friends pass by. But how's the location? Oh, honey, located just 2 blocks to West Hillsborough's shops and restaurants, Gold Park, and the Riverwalk Greenway trail. Wander just a few blocks East and you'll be greeted by downtown icons such as The Colonial Inn, Wooden Nickel Pub, Weaver Street Market, and Volume Records, as well as the immersive festivals and events that take place year round. Back here at home, you'll be delighted with the impressive list of updates, all completed with attention to detail and with historical thought. Heart of pine floors reclaimed from an antebellum home in Cedar Grove; imagine the dinner guests these floors have supported and the secrets they could tell! Additional details include gorgeous trim work, plus all new period-specific lighting and crystal door knobs. The living room is throwing cozy vibes your way with a gas fireplace and original wood mantle, creating the perfect place to settle in with the latest Lee Smith novel purchased from Purple Crow Books just down the street. Step through to the spacious kitchen with room enough for a large island workspace or dining table to easily accommodate six. Another original wood mantle surrounds the double sided fireplace, just in case you needed extra charm. Whether you're an epicurean or an amateur chef, this space provides ample room to perfect your tomato pie recipe for the annual Burwell School Historic Site fundraiser. A spacious front bedroom is light and airy with a french door leading out to the back deck. At the rear of the home you'll find the second bedroom with vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, loft style storage, and a half bath with laundry. In the center of the home is a spacious and updated full bath. Yes, practicality and charm can coexist! A shared easement brings you to the back of the home offering off-street parking and a newly built, rarely available, two-car garage with epoxy flooring that would make even HGTV viewers envious. Pass by the deer-safe garden area where you can grow your own tomatoes (for that award-winning pie) or simply perfect your green thumb with summer sunflowers. Additional improvements include all new windows, new wiring, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a newly sealed crawl space. And no need to worry about uninvited guests as a termite treatment has just been completed with a 10-year guarantee. With extensive updates completed to accommodate how we live today, the previous stewards of this historic home have brought 418 W. King Street into the modern era and secured its longevity for generations to come.Show Description
