Description
A rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Rocky Mount history. Built in 1861 and listed on the Historic Registry, this beautifully preserved 4Bed/3.1Bath home blends more than 160 years of character with today's comfort and thoughtful updates. From the moment you arrive, the stately architecture, inviting porches and beautifully maintained grounds hint at just how special this property truly is. Inside, you'll find gracious living spaces filled with architectural detail and a sense of history that simply cannot be recreated. One of the home's most unique features is its dual staircase and entrance design: Historically, the front portion of the home was used by a local physician while the family occupied the rear. Adding another one-of-a-kind touch, one bedroom features walls individually hand-painted by a local artist, creating a space that is truly a work of art. The thoughtfully updated kitchen complements the home's historic character with soaring ceilings, solid wood cabinetry and generous workspace, while multiple fireplaces, spacious rooms and inviting gathering areas carry the home's story throughout. Enjoy the outdoors; mature landscaping, established gardens, porches and entertaining spaces create a private setting rarely found this close to the conveniences of town. Lovingly maintained and rich with history, 25 Orchard Avenue isn't simply a home, It is a piece of Rocky Mount's past ready for its next chapter!
