Move-In Ready! Classic character, spacious interiors and an unexpected backyard retreat come together in this inviting brick home. Hardwood floors, abundant natural light, generous room sizes and architectural details create warmth throughout, while multiple living and dining spaces and a well-designed kitchen offer flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. And then there's the backyard. A substantial outdoor transformation completed in 2023 added the pool, fire pit, landscaping and fencing. Step through the screened porch to a heated in-ground saltwater pool, hot tub with waterfall spillover, expansive patio, custom-designed privacy fencing and a stone fire pit with built-in seating beneath string lights. Mature landscaping, lawn and garden space and a storage shed with covered potting area complete the setting. Recent improvements also include HVAC replacement in 2024 and basement waterproofing and encapsulation in 2026. The home has also received ongoing professional care, including annual HVAC servicing, annual pest/termite inspections and weekly pool maintenance. From the welcoming front porch to the spacious rooms inside and remarkable outdoor living beyond the back door, 638 Carolina Avenue offers character, flexibility and thoughtful investment inside and out.
