Smithfield, NC 27577Welcome to the Radford-Creech House, a rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of North Carolina's architectural heritage. Situated prominently at the northeast edge of Smithfield's Historic District and is proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places. With over 3,300 square feet of living space spread across 2.5 stories, this home is a showcase of period craftsmanship, fine materials, and architectural elegance. Step inside to find a wide central hallway, soaring 12-foot ceilings, and original oak and mahogany floors featuring exquisite Greek key inlays. Brass and crystal chandeliers, solid hardwood doors, oversized baseboards, and detailed trim speak to the home's rich, handcrafted legacy. The property sits on a generous, level lot shaded by towering Magnolia, Oak, and Crepe Myrtle trees, with Pecan and Plum trees adding seasonal charm. Other features include a quarter basement with exterior access and built-in drains, a sun-filled dining room, a box-beam ceiling in the parlor, and a vintage clawfoot tub in the first-floor bath. Upstairs, you'll find 10-foot ceilings, heart-of-pine flooring, and four spacious bedrooms surrounding a wide landing. A staircase leads to a large, unfinished attic—updated in 2012—with incredible views down Bridge Street, offering the potential for even more living space. This is more than just a home—it's a legacy. Whether you're drawn by its architectural integrity, its place in local history, or its undeniable charm, the Radford Creech House invites you to imagine the next chapter.
