Description
Welcome to The Hill House. This home is more than just a residence, it is a living piece of history, thoughtfully updated for today's lifestyle. Dr George Noble Ennett built a two room doctor's office in 1860. That two room office was transformed into a two story home in 1868, in the style of Greek Revival architecture. The home was sold in 1874 to Captain John William Hill, a blockade runner during the Civil War. The home is known to most as The Hill House.
Relocated to its current location in the early 1990's, this home is situated on a .54 acre lot off a dirt road. This location offers a serene, isolated setting that brings you back in time.
The renovations and additions throughout the years have brought the home to 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,274 square feet. This is where historical charm blends with modern functionality.
From the welcoming front porch you are lead into an open floor plan with plenty of natural light and meticulously maintained hardwood floors. The kitchen boasts marble countertops, farmhouse sink, gas range, and stainless steel appliances. Two of the additions to the home have their own separate entrances. The 2016 addition brought the main floor primary suite and spa-like ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. There is an additional room on the main floor suitable for a bedroom, study, or office. On the second floor, you will find two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. The second floor, like the main floor, is brimming with the charm of a bygone era.
Going to the fenced backyard, you will find a screened-in deck, hot tub, and a fire pit. The peaceful tranquility of the backyard is perfect for entertaining and for enjoying our beautiful Eastern North Carolina days and evenings.
This rare home offers old-world craftsmanship and modern design, bringing you home to a charming piece of history. Schedule your private tour today!
