A Recently Renovated Stone Castle

This unique residence has been thoughtfully renovated while preserving its medieval-inspired charm. The home features a two-story turret, multiple balconies, and a variety of custom details that make it unlike anything else on the market.

It is being sold fully furnished. Included are all paintings, furniture, a pool table, air hockey table, ping pong table, popcorn machine, punching bag, vintage signs, and many additional items—an impressive bonus for anyone wanting a ready-made themed home or short-term rental.

There have been substantial updates, including:
– New bedroom carpet
– New luxury vinyl planks in the kitchen
– Two new HVAC systems
– Upgraded refrigerators in each kitchen
– Fresh interior paint throughout

The two-story shed out back has repaired walls, new floors, and updated steps leading to the second level. A bonus room behind the shed can be used as a garden room, office, studio, or additional bedroom.

Outdoor Features & Surroundings

The exterior updates continue with new lighting, wrought-iron railings, fresh fixtures, and attractive fencing.

The property also offers scenic views overlooking Mac Anderson Park, making the setting feel even more peaceful and picturesque.

A stone two-car carport, sometimes referred to as the “medieval carport,” was added during the 1994 exterior renovation, enhancing both charm and convenience.

A One-of-a-Kind, Affordable Castle

Although the home has three official bedrooms, the additional rooms can easily be converted into more sleeping spaces. One room in particular is exceptionally bright and would make a perfect Florida room, plant-filled sitting area, or cozy reading space.

The owners note that their property is one of the few castles for sale in North Carolina, and likely the most reasonably priced. They are selling the home as-is.
