Not everybody wants a neighborhood. Some folks would rather have a barn than a clubhouse, a tractor instead of a golf cart, and enough room to do what they want without getting a letter from the HOA. If that sounds like you, keep reading. Situated on approximately 25 acres across two parcels in Craven County with a Kinston address, this property offers the kind of freedom that's getting harder to find. Located about 12 miles from Kinston and 36 miles from Greenville, it's close enough to run to town when you need something, but far enough away that nobody's worried about what you've got parked in the yard. The brick home was built in 1950 and offers approximately 1,675 heated square feet plus a 353-square-foot walk-up attic for additional storage. It's not a brand-new HGTV remodel, but it's comfortable, functional, and ready for the next owner to make it their own over time. Features include hardwood floors, knotty pine accents, solid wood doors, a gas fireplace, gas range, tankless water heater, separate laundry room, vinyl windows, high-speed internet availability, whole-home generator, and a recently remodeled bathroom with a beautiful walk-in shower. Outside is where this property really earns its keep. The detached barn includes a large shop area, office space, bathroom, storage areas, and 220-volt power. Whether you're working on equipment, running a small business, woodworking, restoring old cars, or simply need a place for your hobbies, you'll appreciate the flexibility this space offers. Additional improvements include a carport, covered shelter with horse stall, storage building, fenced pasture, and plenty of room for horses, livestock, equipment, trailers, RVs, boats, side-by-sides, and all the other things people tend to accumulate when they finally get enough land. Open pasture, productive farmland, mature woods, and frontage along Alligator Branch provide opportunities for recreation, animals, gardening, hunting, or simply enjoying the outdoors. A portion of the property is currently farmed in soybeans and corn under an annual crop lease, helping maintain the agricultural character of the property. The property is also located within a Voluntary Agricultural District buffer area. Major improvements include shingle replacement, tankless water heater, and HVAC updates all since 2010. A recent wood-destroying insect inspection has been completed, and the seller is getting a boundary survey for the buyer's benefit. If your idea of a good property includes a house with a barn, pasture, workshop, and enough room to do what you want without asking permission, this one deserves a look. Bring the horses, a few cows, the tractor, boat, camper, and all the projects you've been meaning to finish. There's room for it here.
