Bailey, NC 27807Rare opportunity to own a versatile country property with incredible potential! Nestled in a peaceful rural setting, this charming brick home offers the perfect opportunity for investors, DIY enthusiasts, hobby farmers, or buyers looking to create their dream country retreat.

You'll find four garage bays, a spacious workshop, and a former country store/commercial-style building complete with separate electrical service, original hardwood floors, built-in counter space, and endless possibilities. Whether you're a contractor, landscaper, woodworker, mechanic, antique dealer, small business owner, or collector, these versatile buildings provide exceptional space for equipment, inventory, projects, storage, or even a client showroom. Inside, the home offers a functional floor plan ready for your personal updates and improvements. A note: one bedroom does not currently have a closet, and a wardrobe functions as a closet.
