About This Home

As of July 2026

Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow offering 1,576 sq. ft. of living space with a large bonus space over the garage in the heart of Mount Olive. Built in 1930 and thoughtfully updated, this home blends timeless character with today’s comfort and convenience.
Step inside to find a spacious living room with, a bright and open kitchen, and a main-level den that’s perfect for a home office or reading nook. The main floor also includes a comfortable bedroom, a full bathroom, and a convenient laundry room. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms and a second full bath, creating a private retreat for family or guests.
The home sits on a .32-acre lot (100x140), giving you plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. An unfinished basement with a sump pump offers excellent storage or potential for future finishing.
Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will love the 3-car garage, which goes far beyond standard parking. The garage has been plumbed for a bathroom, and its partially finished second floor makes an ideal rec room, office, or creative space — with plumbing already roughed in for an additional bathroom upstairs. This versatile setup gives you room to expand and customize to your lifestyle.
With central air, gas heating, and public utilities, you’ll enjoy both efficiency and peace of mind. Located in the Mount Olive School District, this property is move-in ready and waiting for its next chapter.
