Charming vintage home in the well-loved Forest Hills subdivision, ideally located near the new Arts District, Aviation & River Walks, Lake Hickory, parks, and tennis courts. This well-kept brick home offers over 1600 SQFT of heated living space with 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath, blending classic character with thoughtful updates.

Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring a large window seat framed by built-in bookshelves and a wood-burning fireplace—a perfect cozy gathering spot. A separate dining room with chair-rail molding adds traditional charm. The sunroom, complete with built-ins and abundant natural light, opens to a covered rear deck built in 2019, ideal for relaxing or entertaining.

The kitchen includes all appliances purchased in 2019, and the full bath was beautifully renovated in 2019. A standout feature is the extra-large laundry room off the sunroom—offering excellent storage and potential for a future second bath addition.

Major updates include: • All windows replaced in 2019 • Front and rear doors replaced in 2019 • HVAC system replaced in May 2026 • Garage door replaced in May 2026 • Roof replaced in 2012

Mostly original hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by some LVP. The exterior is primarily brick with vinyl accents on the rear. The large, level, fenced backyard provides wonderful outdoor space, and an outbuilding remains for additional storage.

This home is full of character, lovingly maintained, and situated in one of Hickory’s most established and convenient neighborhoods.
