About This Home
Motivated Seller! Open house Friday 6/12/26 from 4pm-6pm and Saturday 6/13/26 from 10am-12pm. Rare find in the heart of Colfax. Set on 1.75 acres, this historic estate delivers over 5,000 sq ft of timeless character. 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, plus attached and detached two-car garages. The home carries a remarkable legacy as the former residence of Paul Ciener, founder of the celebrated Paul J. Ciener Botanical Garden in Kernersville. A piece of that history lives on inside with the original Ford wallpaper, a preserved collector’s treasure unlike anything you’ll find on today’s market. The grounds are equally special, dotted with mature peach, fig, blueberry, and pecan trees. Just a short drive to the Piedmont Farmers Market and the close-knit charm of one of Guilford County’s most beloved communities. A property this rich in history, space, and soul doesn’t come along often.
