An inside look at the 1950s vintage NC home for $399K featured on Zillow Gone Wild
At a time when vintage homes are becoming a rare gem among cookie-cutter, sleek and modern designs, one North Carolina house from the 1950s is catching a lot of attention on the real estate scene.
A North Wilkesboro Mid-Century Modern home “offering a blend of timeless character and classic design” with colorful tile and wallpaper joins the collection of the wackiest and wildest listings on the Zillow Gone Wild Instagram page.
“Featuring original finishes, vaulted ceilings, and stone flooring, the home reflects its era’s craftsmanship and unique charm. Nestled on over an acre of land, the property provides stunning mountain views, a fenced backyard, mature trees, and lush landscaping,” the Zillow listing says.
The 3,518-square-foot-house sitting on 1.13 acres of land along at 503 Finley Ave. is listed for $399,000.
On the outside, the one-story home doesn’t look too different from other Mid-Century Modern styles.
However, the character of the 1956 home has very much carried on decades later in its three bedroom, four bedroom space — even with some matching wallpaper and bedspreads.
“The terrace and large windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting its distinctive features. Inside, the spacious great room and entertainment area offer plenty of space for gatherings. Additional highlights include large bedrooms, abundant storage, a 2-car garage, and a detached carport,” the listing says.
“There’s even the possibility of revamping the pool area to enhance the outdoor living experience. This is an opportunity to bring new life to a classic home in an idyllic setting. Perfect for those with a vision to transform vintage charm into modern luxury!”
