Own a Rare Piece of North Carolina History. Welcome to the Radford Creech House. An exceptional opportunity to own a residence rich with character and Southern charm. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this historic gem sits at the head of Bridge Street in North Smithfield, anchoring the northeast corner of the Smithfield Historic District.Built in 1885 by Christopher Radford in the Craftsman style and updated in 1929 by Herbert Creech in Colonial Revival fashion, this 2.5-story home spans 3,295 sq ft of timeless architecture. A quarter basement with built-in drains and exterior access adds functional storage space.The grand covered porch--framed by Doric columns--extends to a porte-cochere. The large, level homesite is filled with mature Magnolia, Oak, and Crepe Myrtle trees, along with pecan and plum trees. Azaleas and classic Southern landscaping complete the park-like setting.Inside, the wide center hall entry features a glazed front door with sidelights and transom windows. Original oak and mahogany floors with Greek key inlays, 12' ceilings, hardwood doors, 10'' baseboards, and preserved brass-and-glass hardware reflect the home's fine craftsmanship. Formal spaces glow under three crystal and brass chandeliers.The entry parlor offers a box beam ceiling and built-ins; the spacious dining room is full of natural light. A stainless chimney liner is in place for potential wood-burning fireplace restoration.The large kitchen opens to a bay-window breakfast nook. A downstairs bonus room is ideal for a family room or home office. The first-floor bath features a vintage cast-iron clawfoot tub.Upstairs, 10' ceilings, heart-of-pine floors, four bedrooms, and a full bath surround a wide landing. A staircase leads to the expansive, unfinished attic--updated in 2012 and offering panoramic views down Bridge Street.Rarely available and truly special, the Radford Creech House is ready for its next chapter.
