127 Cedar Drive NWConcord, NC 28025Price: $430,000

Not merely a rehab, more like a resurrection. Built in the 1940s-era Gibson Village community connected to downtown Concord, 127 Cedar Drive NW sits on a FULL ACRE just 3 blocks from Union Street. This dramatic renovation has resulted in a genuine rarity: a charming 40s-era craftsman home with the enhanced structure, systems, and finishes of a property built today. Every major system is new. Not updated - new. New roof, new electrical throughout, new plumbing, new HVAC, new kitchen, new water heater, reinforced foundation with new footings and piers. The kind of infrastructure investment that never shows up in listing photos but is the difference between buying an “older property” versus buying “a restored home” with modern functions. Inside, the original floor plan has been opened and transformed. The kitchen, dining, and living areas now flow as one bright, generous space, anchored by a kitchen island with granite countertops, all-new cabinetry, new appliances, and original hardwood floors restored to their original warmth. The front entry showcases this design rebirth with a new exposed truss roof over the porch that is architectural, not decorative. Upstairs, a full master suite was carved from the attic creating a private third bedroom with its own ceramic-tile walk-in shower, vanity, and substantial closet space. Two additional bedrooms on the main floor share a fully renovated bath. New paint and new lighting throughout. A new walk-in pantry was created including adjacent laundry room with washer and dryer included. And then there is the site. A full acre, 2 blocks from the South Union Street National Register Historic District, 3 blocks from the restaurants, coffee shops, and events on Union Street. Residential lots in this corridor are typically only a quarter-acre at best. This gives you room to breathe, to garden, to add a workshop, or simply to own one of the largest residential parcels in walkable downtown Concord -- a rare combination.
