About this home
Tucked away on a private setting, this classic all-brick 1.5-story home offers incredible potential. The main floor features an open floor plan with recent updates, a large kitchen with custom cabinets and breakfast nook, hardwood floors in the dining room and study/office, and a massive owner's retreat. An oversized side-load garage adds everyday convenience.
Outstanding expansion opportunities await in the unfinished walk-in attic (featuring a cedar closet, ready for a 4th bedroom) and the full unfinished walk-out basement opening to a lower patio.
Outdoors, relax on the expansive wrap-around deck overlooking an in-ground heated pool (needs repair). Don't miss your fishing spot on the private pond.
An exceptional find for dog lovers, breeders, or trainers—the property includes a standalone 1,225 sq. ft. climate-controlled building housing a fully equipped, professional 10-run dog kennel. SEE PRIVATE REMARKS. Two tracts sold together. Seller will NOT sell them separately. Beautiful small pond in front of the home. Look for walkway to fishing spot.

40 Sunrise Court
Sold Aug 14, 2025
Sold for $457k less829 sq ft smaller$102 lower per sq ftBrand new 2024 construction
While the home on Sunrise Court offers the sleek, modern finishes of a 2024 build, it sits on less than an acre in a subdivision. In contrast, the home for sale at 1420 NC 98 Highway E provides a massive 15-acre private estate with specialized features like a professional kennel and a private pond. You are essentially choosing between the low-maintenance lifestyle of a new home and the expansive utility of a large rural property. The higher price per square foot for the home for sale reflects that significant land value and the unique outbuildings.
Bottom line
This is a classic lifestyle comparison where the extra cost of the home for sale is tied directly to the 15 acres and professional kennel facilities.

363 Mulberry Road
Sold Apr 13, 2026
Sold for $375k less501 sq ft smaller$93 lower per sq ftModern 2020 custom build
This sold listing on Mulberry Road shows what a modern, custom-built home on a standard one-acre lot looks like in today's market. It features updated LVP flooring and a stone fireplace that feel very current compared to the more classic 1996 interior of 1420 NC 98 Highway E. However, 1420 NC 98 Highway E offers nearly double the acreage and a full unfinished basement for future growth. The price difference is a clear trade-off between the move-in ready modern style of this property and the sheer scale and potential of the home for sale.
Bottom line
If you value land and privacy over modern interior trends, the home for sale is a solid option despite the higher entry price.

20 Morning Dew Way
Sold Mar 28, 2025
Sold for $450k less911 sq ft smaller$92 lower per sq ftBrand new 2024 construction
The home on Morning Dew Way is a great example of a contemporary 1.5-story layout with an open-concept kitchen and vaulted ceilings. While it sold for a much lower price, it lacks the specialized infrastructure found at 1420 NC 98 Highway E, such as the climate-controlled kennel and the in-ground pool. If you don't need the 15 acres or the animal facilities, this sold listing represents the standard market value for a new home in the area. For a buyer needing a true estate or hobby farm, the home for sale offers features you simply won't find in a traditional neighborhood.
Bottom line
The home for sale is positioned as a unique estate, making it a fair value for someone specifically looking for acreage and outbuildings.
