5083 NC 56 Hwy offers significantly more space and a larger lot than this sold listing, but it clearly needs some love to match the modern feel of the home on W River Road. While the price per square foot is lower for the home for sale, you'd likely spend that savings on the renovations needed to update the 1940s interior. It's a classic choice between a smaller, finished home and a larger project with more land.
This property on W River Road shows what a fully polished, move-in ready home in this price bracket looks like. 5083 NC 56 Hwy is priced similarly but offers nearly 500 more square feet and double the acreage, which is a huge plus if you're looking for space. However, the home for sale is being marketed as an investment opportunity, meaning you should expect to put in some work to reach the level of finish seen here.
Comparing 5083 NC 56 Hwy to this brand-new custom build is really an apples to oranges situation. The home on NC 56 Hwy sold for a much higher price per square foot, but it includes luxury features like quartz countertops, a climate-controlled shed, and 2022 construction. The home for sale is a historic 1946 build that offers a lot more character and land for a lower entry price, but it won't have the modern flow or efficiency of this newer property.
