  • A two-story suburban house with brick and light-colored siding, black shutters, and a covered front porch. The lawn is green, with shrubs and trees surrounding the home on a partly cloudy day.

    • 2640 Sqft

    • Sq Ft: โฌ†๏ธ (102 sqft larger)

    • Cost/SqFt: โฌ†๏ธ ($138/sqft lower)

    • Condition: โฌ‡๏ธ (1970s traditional vs. 1805 Historic Landmark)

    This home on Sid Eaves Road offers a nice 4-acre lot and a solid 1970s build, but it lacks the unique soul of 4822 NC 98 Highway W. While the price is much lower, you aren’t getting the 14 acres of riverfront land or the 8-stall barn found at the home for sale. 4822 NC 98 Highway W is a specialized property for a buyer who values history and equestrian facilities, whereas this sold listing is a more standard rural residence.

    ๐ŸŸก If you want a standard rural home with some land, this sold listing was a great deal, but 4822 NC 98 Highway W is in a different league of prestige and acreage.

  • A single-story brick house with white trim and arched windows sits surrounded by green grass and trees under a blue sky with scattered clouds. A detached white garage is visible on the left.

    • Sq Ft: โฌ‡๏ธ (248 sqft smaller)

    • Cost/SqFt: โฌ†๏ธ ($93/sqft lower)

    • Condition: โฌ‡๏ธ (2005 suburban vs. 1805 Historic Landmark)

    This property on Little River Court is a lovely 2005 build on a standard-sized lot, which explains the lower price point. It features modern updates like a screened porch and a detached garage, but it doesn’t compare to the grand scale and historic significance of 4822 NC 98 Highway W. The extra investment for the home for sale buys you 13 additional acres and a piece of North Carolina history that this sold listing simply doesn’t offer.

    ๐ŸŸก This sold listing is a great suburban alternative, but for a buyer seeking a true estate with river access and horse stalls, 4822 NC 98 Highway W is the clear choice.
