About This Home

This house is a captivating piece of mid-century history. Built in 1963, this one story home graces an idyllic lot with frontage on Lake Swannanoa. Every detail reflects thoughtful intentionality: Terrazzo floors, rustic rough-cut beams, a sleek metal roof, and a double chimney framing a contemporary fireplace—set behind a hearth believed to have originated from the historic Washington Duke home.

This spectacular two-bedroom home also boasts a sunroom that overlooks a charming outdoor patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The grounds feature a wired shed equipped with an EV charger and a garden shed, raised garden beds bursting with native plantings, and a cozy fire pit with breathtaking lake views. Adding to the home's unique character is an original carriage step stone, thoughtfully repurposed as a tranquil spot for meditation in the garden.

New HVAC with Trane 10 year transferable warranty. Minutes from the Indian Trail, Parks, and Duke University and Hospital. Welcome Home!
