About This Property

This move-in ready home features real hardwood floors throughout the main living areas and large ceramic tile in the kitchen and baths, offering a level of durability and craftsmanship rarely found at this price point. Freshly repainted in modern, neutral tones, the interior feels clean, bright, and truly turnkey. Major system updates provide peace of mind, including a brand-new gas furnace and central air conditioning—allowing the next owner to move in without worrying about costly immediate replacements. The spacious layout includes a well-appointed kitchen, comfortable living areas, and three generously sized bedrooms. Step outside to enjoy a large rear deck, perfect for relaxing or entertaining in a peaceful setting. A standout feature of this home is the expansive unfinished basement, offering exceptional storage, workshop potential, or the opportunity to create additional finished space over time—flexibility that is rarely available in townhome living. The roof has been well maintained with no known issues, and the HOA contributes toward future replacement, helping offset long-term ownership costs. Additional highlights include a private garage and low-maintenance living with HOA-managed exterior upkeep. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, and major routes, this home offers both everyday convenience and long-term value. Homes with this level of care, space, and flexibility are hard to find—schedule your showing today.

About the Neighborhood

Homes for sale in 28601 place buyers in Hickory, the Catawba County seat and one of the most economically diverse and culturally rich small cities in the North Carolina Piedmont, approximately 60 miles northwest of Charlotte via I-40. Hickory's residential landscape spans a remarkable architectural range, from the stately Colonial Revival and Craftsman homes of the Oakwood Historic District and the grand early 20th-century estates along Third Avenue NE to mid-century brick ranches in established neighborhoods and newer construction responding to continued growth. The revitalized Downtown Hickory corridor along Union Square delivers an increasingly celebrated independent restaurant and craft beverage scene, while the Hickory Metro Convention Center and Lenoir-Rhyne University anchor significant employment and cultural activity. The Catawba Science Center and the SALT Block cultural campus provide distinctive arts and educational anchors unique to the region. Major employers including Corning, CommScope, and a robust furniture and advanced manufacturing base make Hickory one of the most employment-diverse cities in western North Carolina. The 28601 real estate market delivers substantial architectural character and genuine urban amenity at price points that remain highly competitive relative to Charlotte's suburban markets.
