2.5-Acre Farmhouse Renovation in Rose Hill

Set on approximately 2.5 acres, this 1925 farmhouse includes 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and approximately 2,330 square feet of heated living area across the first floor and stair-served upper level. The property retains wood floors, wood-plank ceilings, multiple fireplace locations, additional upper-level rooms, a long covered porch, mature trees, and a rural NC-11 setting. Because the ordinary one-mile pool contained no qualifying renovated closed sales, the comparable radius was expanded to 2.69 miles while remaining in Rose Hill, ZIP 28458, and Duplin County. The interior requires a comprehensive renovation, while the unverified roof, foundation, crawl space, utilities, and unseen building areas should be evaluated before work begins.
