Welcome to 205 Elm Street, a charming 1923 Craftsman Bungalow in the desirable Fulton Heights Neighborhood of Salisbury, North Carolina ~ listed with Greg Rapp with Salisbury Real Estate LLC!
The lovely neighborhood of Fulton Heights came into existence in 1902 when the Southern Development Company bought nearly 100 acres in south Salisbury and subdivided it for sale ~ Salisbury's first 'subdivision'! It was then a highly desirable residential community on the outskirts of Salisbury, connected to Salisbury by the electric trolley line, with all the modern amenities – waterworks, sewer, electricity and long-distance telephone service by Southern Bell! Today, this neighborhood remains a highly desirable area boasting shaded streets in a walkable grid and its own park! Fulton Heights was entered into the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 to assist in the preservation of the neighborhood's many architectural examples that range from 1906 through the 1940s. It consists of over 500 significant structures that include residential architectural styles from late Victorian Queen Anne houses to Colonial, Dutch Colonial, Spanish Colonial, Tudor Revival, Prairie School, and Craftsman residences - ranging in size from modest cottages and bungalows to more stately homes. 205 Elm Street is one of these vintage bungalows and is designated as a 'Contributing Structure' in the National Register!
Mature trees shade and cool this inviting home that features a welcoming, freshly painted rocking-chair front porch (approximately 16' x 10').

From here, step inside this 4-bedroom home to a spacious living room, where the hardwood floors have been newly refinished, and the circa 1923 fireplace (N.F.) hosts its beautiful original mantelpiece.
Through a large cased pass-through, you enter the dining room, where more newly finished hardwood floors gleam and handsome crown molding surrounds the ceiling.
The kitchen features new linoleum flooring, new countertops, and new appliances. Pretty white cupboards abound! Off the kitchen, you'll find the laundry room, with its pretty wainscoting. This room may have originally been a sweet little side porch that is now enclosed.
The flexible floor plan offers up to four bedrooms or the option to dedicate one room as a home office, hobby space, or guest room. Two of the bedrooms offer brand-new carpet! The Primary Bedroom features original warm knotty pine walls, more beautiful wood floors, and French doors that lead to a rear deck (approximately 15' x 8') that overlooks the deep, semi-private backyard. One of the home's two half-baths adjoins this bedroom.
Energy-efficient (newer vinyl) windows that sport their original Arts & Crafts interior trim offer comfort and value.
205 Elm Street updates include fresh interior paint throughout, new appliances, new countertops, newly refinished hardwood floors, and new linoleum floors in the kitchen and bathrooms. The foundation has been freshly painted. With its large 1,097-square-foot basement, accessible from both the interior and exterior, with abundant storage, workshop potential, or future possibilities, this well-maintained, low-maintenance home is ready for its next owners.
