Gorgeous ca.1920 Arts & Crafts Home Listed with Greg Rapp - Sold!

Centered in one what might easily be the most prestigious historic district in Salisbury, North Carolina, stands the spectacular 319 W. Horah Street - a 2-story Arts & Crafts home. This outstanding circa 1920 home, complete with all the wonderful details we all love about the homes of this era, is surrounded by a plethora of other grand homes dating from the late 1800s to the early 1900s.  Yet, this home represented a bit of a challenge.  The owners listed the home with Realtor Greg Rapp of Wallace Realty, and today the home is sold.  What was the challenge?  

Listen here:

319 W. Horah Street, while a stand-alone home in every respect, is part of a condominium plat. The luxury high-end Fairmont Terrace Condominiums another historic building in the West Square Historic District, is nearby and includes this fine home. The property basically came with no yard or lawn, but provides a gracious circular drive and handsome foundation landscaping. So . . . house or condo . . . how does one market such a property?  List with Greg Rapp and the rest is history!

This fabulous 2400+ square foot house has the look and feel of a private home, but has little to no yard to keep you from enjoying the space and your own time! Additionally, it is chock full of the character and detail one can only find in a circa 1900s Arts and Crafts home of this nature. Look at the classic lines of this Craftsman home! Beveled glass, working transoms, GORGEOUS woodwork, vintage mantels above vintage fireplaces, French doors...the list goes on and on. And even better, while this home was definitely part of a condominium plat . . . it carried no fees or dues and is excluded from the condo association! YES!

Entertain in the sprawling front parlor with its handsome wood floors and masonry fireplace. A cozy den sits behind it with another beautiful vintage fireplace. 

The new owners of 319 W. Horah Street can take that same entertaining to another level in the enormous dining room that enters to a huge kitchen with large center work peninsula and loads of cupboard space.

Up the grand center staircase are (3) gracious  bedrooms and two full baths. Each bedroom closet is outfitted with closet organizers. An intimate Florida room with tin flooring stream sunlight. Additionally, the mezzanine hallway offers 3 lighted closets (one is a cedar closet!) and a laundry, a rarity for a home of this era.

Greg marketed 319 W. Horah Street by comparing the desirability of a private home...the bountiful square footage, the space between neighbors, the individuality.. . . and the benefits provided to the condo owner - no lawn mowing, weeding, or hedge trimming. And now, another historic home is added to the Greg Rapp SOLD roster.

The new owners will have all the advantages of a single-family home ~ privacy, space, individuality ~ with the benefit of low exterior maintenance that comes with a condo...but without all the fees and restrictions! 

When you are selling your property, or are in search of that perfect home, call Greg Rapp with Wallace Realty to help you get that SOLD sign happening! (704) 213-6846 makes it happen today.

It Could Have Been Yours . . . But It's SOLD!

We said it could be yours . . . this immaculate (really!!!) ranch-style home in the City Park Neighborhood of Salisbury, North Carolina.  And we meant it . . . but no more!  Mark this fine home another one SOLD by Realtor Greg Rapp with Wallace Realty!

The home at 501 W. Henderson Street is no basic single-story ranch. As you enter and walk through its large eat-in kitchen, spacious living room with fireplace, and down the hall to the three bedrooms, you might be convinced that this is exactly what you're looking at. But downstairs is another nearly 800 heated and cooled square feet of living space with a large den (gas log fireplace, anyone?), a full bath, spotless laundry room, a hobby room . . . and on out to a single-car garage and large workshop. This is no ordinary Ranch home!

Greg Rapp listed this home on October 23rd, 2018. The home's story hit the blog October 24th . . . and the home was under contract by Halloween!  Less than one month later, the new owners have closed on this wonderful house.

The moral of the story: 

List your property 'For Sale' with Greg Rapp. Let's hang that 'SOLD' sign on your property today!
