About 8777 State Route 162

Dream big (and bring your toolbox)! This 1-acre slice of country freedom sits just outside city limits in Triad school district—right next to a bougie subdivision, but guess what? There are no HOA rules here! With 1400+ sq ft of living space plus a 476 sq ft attic begging for a glow-up, this one has lots of light, charm, and...let's be honest, it needs some serious love. Ok, full disclosure: this is more than a little TLC and a fresh coat of paint. You're going to be doing some serious work to bring this old broad back to life. Restore it and be a renovation hero, preserving this 2 bed, 1 bath home (circa 1860s) for future generations. Or, demo the house and salvage/reuse that gorgeous vintage lumber building your custom home on a once-in-a-lifetime lot with utilities already on site. Either way, with two sheds, mature trees, and a whole lotta peace and quiet, you really can't go wrong here. Freedom, projects, and possibilities await!
