About this home
Lower Creek-situated on approximately 5 acres in the foothills of Western North Carolina, this historic farmhouse offers mountain views, privacy, and the space to enjoy a true country lifestyle. Originally built in 1914, the property features a sprawling front yard, a mature magnolia tree, and views toward Table Rock, all while remaining conveniently located just outside the city limits and minutes from shopping and downtown Lenoir. Hickory is approximately 20 minutes away, while Boone and Appalachian State University can be reached in approximately 30 minutes, with convenient access to local shopping, dining, recreation & downtown Lenoir!
Step inside through the classic farmhouse foyer where historic character and everyday functionality come together. Just off the foyer, the formal dining room showcases the home’s original fireplace creating a welcoming space for gatherings and entertaining. The large kitchen with quartz countertops and an under mount sink offers plenty of storage & connects to a generous laundry room with half bath and potential for a butler’s pantry.
The oversized living room is anchored by a wood stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, while a separate library or sitting room with a fireplace provides an additional space to relax and unwind. The main level features two spacious primary suites one with separate entrance, each with a private en suite bath and walk-in closet. The second story offers 3 additional bedrooms and a full bathroom.
Outside, the in-ground pool with a new liner (2020) creates the perfect setting for summer afternoons, while the expansive yard offers room to garden, play, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
The property’s outbuildings provide exceptional versatility, including an oversized garage ideal for RV storage, recreational vehicles, equipment, or workshop space, a secondary two-car garage, attached carport, storage shed, and a barn with fenced pasture area recently used for goats.
Adding to its unique appeal, the property is located near Lower Creek Airport, a private member-based airfield serving the local aviation community. Combined with the acreage, mountain views, pool, and extensive outbuildings, this property offers historic charm, modern flexibility and the beauty of the foothills in one remarkable setting!

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.
Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
